Phosphate starvation induces the transcription of several genes involved in phosphate
metabolism in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The signal transduction …

A saturating genetic dissection of 'blind'mutants in Neurospora crassa has identified a total
of two non‐redundant loci (wc‐1 and wc‐2) each of which is required for blue‐light …

We have initiated a mutational analysis of pathogenicity in the rice blast fungus,
Magnaporthe grisea, in which hygromycin-resistant transformants, most generated by …

Chlamydomonas is a popular genetic model system for studying many cellular processes. In
this report, we describe a new approach to isolate Chlamydomonas genes using the cloned …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are proteins whose transcription responds rapidly to
temperature shifts. They constitute a family of molecular chaperones, involved in the proper …

The Japanese pear pathotype of Alternaria alternata causes black spot of Japanese pear by
producing a host-specific toxin known as AK-toxin. Restriction enzyme-mediated integration …

Hygromycin-resistant transformants of the cucurbit pathogen Colletotrichum magna
(teleomorph: Glomerella magna) were generated by restriction enzyme-mediated integration …

R estriction e nzyme-m ediated DNA i ntegration (REMI) has recently received attention as a
new technique for the generation of mutants by transformation in fungi. Here we analyse this …

Fungal spores are a primary means of dissemination and are the major sources of inoculum
in pathogenic species. Sporulation in the rice blast fungusMagnaporthe griseainvolves the …

A better understanding of fungal biology will facilitate judicious use of beneficial fungi and
will also advance our efforts to control pathogenic fungi. Molecular studies of fungal biology …
