Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association ExoPG expression was higher in highly aggressive isolates than weakly aggressive isolates in response to potato leaf and stem extracts.
- Observation ExoPG expression increased during infection in both isolates and was higher in the aggressive isolate early in infection.
- Intervention effect ExoPG disruption did not influence virulence.
- Intervention effect ExoPG disruption did not affect total fungal exopolygalacturonase activity.
- Observation Genome analysis identified eight more fungal genes related to polygalacturonase or pectinase activity.
- Association PGA transcripts increased in the ExoPG deletion mutant after potato leaf extract exposure relative to wild type.
- Observation Eight related genes showed similar expression trends in the ExoPG mutant and weakly aggressive isolate after potato extracts.
- Mechanism Authors infer that the deletion mutant compensates for ExoPG suppression by activating related genes.
