Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation FgCpc2 is critical for vegetative growth, conidiation and sexual development in F. graminearum.
- Association The Δ Fgcpc2 mutant showed increased sensitivity to osmotic, oxidative and cell wall-disrupting agents.
- Observation FgCpc2 is required for deoxynivalenol (DON) production.
- Intervention effect Δ FgCpc2 mutants produced significantly fewer toxisomes than the wild type.
- Mechanism FgCpc2 is suggested to affect mycelial growth by regulating amino acid metabolism.
- Observation FgCpc2 is uniformly distributed in the cytoplasm throughout fungal development.
- Observation FgCpc2 is highly conserved across species and shares notable amino acid similarity with Gβ-like proteins.
