Abstract: A split-marker system for targeted gene deletion was developed for the model grass endophytic fungus Epichloë festucae. Compared to the conventional system that yields up to 25% homologous recombinants, the method resulted in 33-74% targeted… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Many symbiotic Epichloë species are seed-transmitted in their grass hosts. For a detailed investigation of Epichloë festucae colonization throughout the life cycle of its host, the authors transformed strain Fl1 with a fungal-active gene… read more here.

Abstract: Plants secrete various defence-related proteins into the apoplast, including proteases. Papain-like cysteine proteases (PLCPs) are central components of the plant immune system. To overcome plant immunity and successfully colonise their hosts, several plant pathogens secrete… read more here.
