Patterns of Expression of a Lolitrem Biosynthetic Gene in the Epichloë festucae–Perennial Ryegrass Symbiosis

Lolitrem B is synthesized by Epichloë festucae in associations with Pooid grasses. A complex cluster of at least 10 genes (ltm genes) is required for its synthesis. An early step in this pathway is catalyzed by ltmM, a symbiosis-expressed gene. PltmM-gusA reporter gene analysis was used to monitor l...
