A peroxidase-derived ligand that induces Fusarium graminearum Ste2 receptor-dependent chemotropism

IntroductionThe fungal G protein-coupled receptors Ste2 and Ste3 are vital in mediating directional hyphal growth of the agricultural pathogen Fusarium graminearum towards wheat plants. This chemotropism is induced by a catalytic product of peroxidases secreted by the wheat. Currently, the identity...
