Fusarium graminearum is an important plant pathogen that causes head blight of major
cereal crops. The fungus produces mycotoxins that are harmful to animal and human. In this …

Background Accurate genome assembly and gene model annotation are critical for
comparative species and gene functional analyses. Here we present the completed genome …

Fruiting bodies are multicellular structures that are developed during the sexual life cycle of
filamentous ascomycetes and protect the products of meiosis. In this review, we will provide …

NADPH oxidase is an enzyme that generates reactive oxygen species from oxygen and
NADPH and is highly conserved in eukaryotes. In Fusarium graminearum, a series of …

As resistance to chemical fungicides continues to increase in Fusarium graminearum, there
is a growing need to develop novel disease control strategies. To discover essential genes …

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by infection with Fusarium graminearum leads to
enormous losses to crop growers, and may contaminate grains with a number of Fusarium …

Various ascomycete fungi possess sex-specific molecular mechanisms, such as repeat-
induced point mutations, meiotic silencing by unpaired DNA, and unusual adenosine-to …

Fusarium graminearum (teleomorph Gibberella zeae) is a prominent pathogen that infects
major cereal crops such as wheat, barley, and maize. Both sexual (ascospores) and asexual …

Fusarium graminearum, a prominent fungal pathogen that infects major cereal crops,
primarily utilizes asexual spores to spread disease. To understand the molecular …

In plant-pathogen interactions, oxidative bursts are crucial for plants to defend themselves
against pathogen infections. Rapid production and accumulation of reactive oxygen species …
