Involvement of three FliA‐family sigma factors in the sporangium formation, spore dormancy and sporangium dehiscence in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
AbstractThe rare actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis forms sporangia, which open up and release zoospores in response to water. Here, we report a genetic and functional analysis of four FliA‐family sigma factors, FliA1, FliA2, FliA3 and FliA4. Transcription of fliA1, fliA2 and fliA3 was directly activated by the global transcriptional activator ...

Regulation of Sporangium Formation, Spore Dormancy, and Sporangium Dehiscence by a Hybrid Sensor Histidine Kinase in Actinoplanes missouriensis: Relationship with the Global Transcriptional Regulator TcrA [PDF]
Actinoplanes missouriensis goes through complex morphological differentiation, including formation of flagellated spore-containing sporangia, sporangium dehiscence, swimming of zoospores, and germination of zoospores to filamentous growth.

Sporangium-Specific Gene Expression in theOomycete Phytopathogen Phytophthorainfestans [PDF]
ABSTRACT The oomycete genus Phytophthora includes many of the world's most destructive plant pathogens, which are generally disseminated by asexual sporangia. To identify factors relevant to the biology of these propagules, genes induced in sporangia of the potato late blight pathogen ...

A Phytophthora infestans G-Protein β Subunit Is Involved in Sporangium Formation [PDF]
ABSTRACT The heterotrimeric G-protein pathway regulates cellular responses to a wide range of extracellular signals in virtually all eukaryotes. It also controls various developmental processes in the oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans , as was concluded from previous studies on the role of the

A Protein with Unknown Function, Ps495620, Is Critical for the Sporulation and Oospore Production of Phytophthora sojae [PDF]
While the rapid rise in bioinformatics has facilitated the identification of the domains and functions of many proteins, some still have no domain annotation or largely uncharacterized functions. However, the biological roles of unknown proteins were not
