Popis: | Pseudocercospora fijiensis is a filamentous, hemi[B1] biotrophic fungus whose infection process in banana comprises biotrophic and necrotrophic phases; the biotrophic phase is the longer and less damaging of the two but is nonetheless a crucial stage of fungal establishment in the host. To discover the genes essential in this stage, we conducted an interaction experiment to isolate the transcriptome of the P. fijiensis and Musa acuminata interaction during the first 9 days of infection. Of more than 7000 P. fijiensis genes identified, the fifteen most highly expressed genes (RPKM>500) were analyzed. Specific non-canonical effector candidates were identified following in silico characterization which may be fundamental to pathogenicity. This report reveals essential details of a poorly-elucidated stage of the P. fijiensis-Musa sp. pathosystem. |
