Targeted Disruption of Scytalone Dehydratase Gene Using <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i>-Mediated Transformation Leads to Altered Melanin Production in <i>Ascochyta lentis</i>

Targeted Disruption of Scytalone Dehydratase Gene Using <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i>-Mediated Transformation Leads to Altered Melanin Production in <i>Ascochyta lentis</i>

Sustainable crop production is constantly challenged by the rapid evolution of fungal pathogens equipped with an array of host infection strategies and survival mechanisms. One of the devastating fungal pathogens that infect lentil is the ascomycete <i>Ascochyta lentis</i> which causes b...
