Magnaporthe grisea Pathogenicity Genes Obtained Through Insertional Mutagenesis

Sweigard, James A., Carroll, Anne M., Farrall, Leonard, Chumley, Forrest G., Valent, Barbara·1998·Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions®

Abstract

We have initiated a mutational analysis of pathogenicity in the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, in which hygromycin-resistant transformants, most generated by restriction enzyme-mediated integration (REMI), were screened for the ability to infect plants. A rapid primary infection assay facilitated screening of 5,538 transformants. Twenty-seven mutants were obtained that showed a reproducible pathogenicity defect, and 18 of these contained mutations that cosegregated with the hygromycin resistance marker. Analysis of eight mutants has resulted in the cloning of seven PTH genes that play a role in pathogenicity on barley, weeping lovegrass, and rice. Two independent mutants identified the same gene, PTH2, suggesting nonrandom insertion of the transforming DNA. These first 7 cloned PTH genes are described.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
