Deletion of all Cochliobolus heterostrophus Monofunctional Catalase-Encoding Genes Reveals a Role for One in Sensitivity to Oxidative Stress but None with a Role in Virulence

The genome of the maize pathogen Cochliobolus heterostrophus encodes three unlinked monofunctional catalase-encoding (CAT) genes that singly or in combination could offer protection against the harmful effects of oxidative stress. Phylogenetic analysis placed the CAT2 and CAT3 proteins in a cluster...
