Stk2, a Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase from Setosphaeria turcica, Specifically Complements the Functions of the Fus3 and Kss1 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Filamentation, Invasive Growth, and Mating Behavior

Setosphaeria turcica, an essential phytopathogenic fungus, is the primary cause of serious yield losses in corn; however, its pathogenic mechanism is poorly understood. We cloned STK2, a newly discovered mitogen-activated protein kinase gene with a deduced amino acid sequence that is 96% identical t...
