MGOS: A Resource for Studying Magnaporthe grisea and Oryza sativa Interactions

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
The MGOS (Magnaporthe grisea Oryza sativa) web-based database contains data from Oryza sativa and Magnaporthe grisea interaction experiments in which M. grisea is the fungal pathogen that causes the rice blast disease. In order to study the interactions,

Insertion of the LINE Retrotransposon MGL Causes a Conidiophore Pattern Mutation in Magnaporthe grisea

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
We obtained three Magnaporthe grisea morphological mutants that had the LINE transposon MGL inserted into the ACR1 locus. Sequence analysis revealed that ACR1 is homologous to medA, a developmental regulator of Aspergillus nidulans conidiation.

The role of silicon in suppressing gray leaf spot development in St. Augustinegrass

EDIS, 2003
If you maintain St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum) in Florida, its possible that gray leaf spot, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe grisea (Pyricularia grisea), will be a problem in your lawn or sod field.

Fungal oxylipins direct programmed developmental switches in filamentous fungi

Nature Communications, 2020
Fungi produce oxygenated fatty acids, or oxylipins, of unclear function. Here, Niu et al. show that an Aspergillus oxylipin induces various developmental processes in several fungi, including lateral branching in human pathogenic Aspergillus species, and

Estimates of biomechanical forces in Magnaporthe grisea

Mycological Research, 2006
The mechanical actions of the fungus Magnaporthe grisea raise many intriguing questions concerning the forces involved. These include: (1) the material properties of the appressorial wall; (2) the strength of the adhesive that keeps the appressorium anchored to the rice leaf surface; and (3) the forces involved in the penetration process whereby a peg ...

Gain of Virulence Caused by Insertion of a Pot3 Transposon in a Magnaporthe grisea Avirulence Gene

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
The avirulence gene AVR-Pita in Magnaporthe grisea prevents the fungus from infecting rice cultivars carrying the disease resistance gene Pi-ta. Insertion of Pot3 transposon into the promoter of AVR-Pita caused the gain of virulence toward Yashiro-mochi,

Representative appressorium stage cDNA library of Magnaporthe grisea. [PDF]

J Zhejiang Univ Sci B, 2005
A mature appressorium cDNA library of rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, was constructed in a lambdaTriplEx2 vector by SMART cDNA library containing 2.37x10(6) independent clones about 100% of which harbor foreign cDNA inserts with average size of 660 bp.

A Protein from the Mold Aspergillus giganteus Is a Potent Inhibitor of Fungal Plant Pathogens

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
A purified preparation of antifungal protein (AFP) from Aspergillus giganteus exhibited potent antifungal activity against the phytopathogenic fungi Magnaporthe grisea and Fusarium moniliforme, as well as the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans ...

A Fungal Metallothionein Is Required for Pathogenicity of Magnaporthe grisea [PDF]

The Plant Cell, 2004
The causal agent of rice blast disease, the ascomycete fungus Magnaporthe grisea, infects rice (Oryza sativa) plants by means of specialized infection structures called appressoria, which are formed on the leaf surface and mechanically rupture the cuticle.
