A Pmk1-Regulated Mst12-Bip1 Network Coordinates Appressorium Function, Effector Deployment, and Invasive Growth by Magnaporthe oryzae
A Pmk1-dependent transcriptional network required for plant infection by the blast fungus is defined, which regulates functions required for appressorium-mediated penetration, while Bip1 controls a distinct sub-set of effector genes deployed during invasion of plant tissue.
