The LmSNF1 gene is required for pathogenicity in the canola blackleg pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Leptosphaeria maculans is a fungal pathogen causing blackleg in canola. Its virulence has been attributed, among other factors, to the activity of hydrolytic cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs).
