Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenases as Chitin-Specific Virulence Factors in Crayfish Plague
The oomycete pathogen <i>Aphanomyces astaci</i>, also known as “crayfish plague”, is an obligate fungal-like parasite of freshwater crustaceans and is considered responsible for the ongoing decline of native European crayfish populations. <i>A. astaci</i> is thought to secret...
