Gene discovery in EST sequences from the wheat leaf rust fungus <it>Puccinia triticina </it>sexual spores, asexual spores and haustoria, compared to other rust and corn smut fungi

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Rust fungi are biotrophic basidiomycete plant pathogens that cause major diseases on plants and trees world-wide, affecting agriculture and forestry. Their biotrophic nature precludes many established molecular genetic manipulations...
