Regions of Microsynteny in Magnaporthe grisea and Neurospora crassa

Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2001
A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone containing 110,467 bp of genomic DNA from Magnaporthe grisea was sequenced, annotated, and compared to the genomes of Neurospora crassa, Candida albicans, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Twenty-six open reading frames (ORFs), involved in multiple biochemical pathways, were identified in the BAC sequence.

Preliminary Crystallographic Studies on Scytalone Dehydratase from Magnaporthe grisea

Journal of Molecular Biology, 1993
Magnaporthe grisea are pathogenic, directly penetrating fungi which cause rice blast disease. Isolated, non-pathogenic mutant strains which are defective in the biosynthesis of dihydroxynapthalene-derived melanin fail to infect host plants and have been shown to lack certain key enzymes in melanin biosynthesis.

Mechanism of resistance to carpropamid in Magnaporthe grisea

Pest Management Science, 2004
Abstract The inhibitory activity of carpropamid on scytalone dehydratase (SDH) extracted from a carpropamid‐resistant strain of Magnaporthe grisea (Hebert) Barr was dramatically reduced in comparison with that on SDH extracted from the sensitive strain.

The Rice Blast Fungus, Magnaporthe grisea

1997
Magnaporthe grisea (Hebert) Barr (Barr 1977; Yaegashi and Udagawa 1978) is a filamentous, heterothallic Ascomycotina that collectively causes disease on many species of the grass (Poaceae) family. M. grisea is the teleomorph corresponding to the previously distinct anamorphs Pyricularia oryzae, infecting rice (Oryza sativa), and P.

LOX genes in blast fungus (Magnaporthe grisea) resistance in rice

Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2012
Plant Lipoxygenases (LOX) are known to play major role in plant immunity by providing front-line defense against pathogen-induced injury. To verify this, we isolated a full-length OsLOX3 gene and also 12 OsLOX cDNA clones from Oryza sativa indica (cultivar Pusa Basmati 1).

Having a blast: exploring the pathogenicity of Magnaporthe grisea

Trends in Microbiology, 1995
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea has an exquisite level of pathogenic specialization, allowing it to infect and colonize rice, subvert the metabolism of the host and spread to new hosts. Through a combination of cytology and molecular-genetic analysis, a picture is gradually emerging of the many interlinked processes that are required for ...

A hybrid machine model of rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea

Biosystems, 2003
The fungus, Magnaporthe grisea (Rice blast fungus) is a major agricultural problem affecting rice and related food crops. The way that the fungus invades the host plant and propagates itself is a very important scientific problem and recent advances in research into the genetic basis of these processes can be used to build a simple partial model using ...

Infection-related development in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 1998
Recent developments have been made in the identification of signal transduction pathways and gene products involved in the infection-related development of the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea. It has been established that cAMP-dependent and MAP kinase-mediated signaling are both critical for appressorium morphogenesis and function.

Disruption of a Magnaporthe grisea cutinase gene.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG, 1992
Using a one-step strategy to disrupt CUT1, a gene for cutinase, cut1- mutants were generated in two strains of Magnaporthe grisea. One strain, pathogenic on weeping lovegrass and barley and containing the arg3-12 mutation, was transformed with a disruption vector in which the Aspergillus nidulans ArgB+ gene was inserted into CUT1.

Production of perithecia of Magnaporthe grisea on rice plants

Mycological Research, 1990
Coinoculation of compatible strains of Magnaporthe grisea screened for their perithecial production resulted in the production of perithecia on rice plants.
