Functional Analysis of Lipid Metabolism in Magnaporthe grisea Reveals a Requirement for Peroxisomal Fatty Acid β-Oxidation During Appressorium-Mediated Plant Infection
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea infects plants by means of specialized infection structures known as appressoria. Turgor generated in the appressorium provides the invasive force that allows the fungus to breach the leaf cuticle with a narrow-penetration hypha gaining entry to the underlyin...
