近期,中科院上海生命科学研究院植生生态所研究人员揭示了禾谷镰孢侵染植物的分子策略。禾谷镰孢是一种丝状真菌,能引起小麦赤霉病、玉米茎腐病等多种农作物病害,还能产生脱氧雪腐镰刀菌烯醇等真菌毒素。禾谷镰孢的基因组编码约14000个基因,已有上百个基因被证明与其致病性相关,但禾谷镰孢致病机制的全貌仍不清楚。
Recently, researchers from the Institute of Plant Ecology at the Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, revealed the molecular strategy of infecting plants with Fusarium graminearum. Fusarium graminearum is a filamentous fungus, can cause wheat scab, corn stalk rot and other crop diseases, but also produce deoxynivalenol and other fungal toxins. The genome of Fusarium graminearum encodes about 14,000 genes. Hundreds of genes have been shown to be associated with their pathogenicity, but the full picture of the pathogenesis of Fusarium graminearum remains unclear.
