Generation of a Clean Host for Polyketide Production Using Agricultural Wastes in Ascochyta Rabiei

open access: yesMycobiology
The plant pathogenic fungus Ascochyta rabiei produces solanapyrones, which are polyketide-derived secondary metabolites, during its saprobic growth on straws. Previously, we utilized A. rabiei as a heterologous host to produce a lichen-derived polyketide
