DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.3c01617
Abstract: RNase T2 members are secreted by several pathogens or parasites during infection, playing various roles in pathogen-host interaction. However, functions of those members in biocontrol microbes targeting their hosts are still unknown. Here, we report… read more here.
