MoGT2 Is Essential for Morphogenesis and Pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae

The ascomycete fungus Magnapothe oryzae is the causal agent of rice blast disease, leading to severe loss in cultivated rice production worldwide. In this study, we identified a conserved type 2 glycosyltransferase named MoGt2 in M. oryzae. The mogt2Δ targeted gene deletion mutants exhibited pleiotr...
