The CPKA Gene of Magnaporthe grisea Is Essential for Appressorial Penetration
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea uses appressoria to penetrate into plant cells. Appressorium formation occurs following conidial germination on hydrophobic surfaces and may involve a cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent signaling mechanism. Recently, gene replacement mutants of CPKA, a gene encoding...
