Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Sspdhx deletion significantly impaired virulence of S. sclerotiorum
- Intervention effect Sspdhx deletion reduced acetyl-CoA and ATP levels in S. sclerotiorum
- Intervention effect Sspdhx deletion increased sensitivity of S. sclerotiorum to multiple environmental stresses
- Intervention effect Exogenous acetyl-L-carnitine partially restored virulence of ΔSspdhx mutants
- Observation Transcriptomic analyses show that Sspdhx deletion disrupts central carbon metabolic homeostasis in S. sclerotiorum
- Observation Sspdhx deletion causes broad transcriptional reprogramming of genes for vegetative growth, stress adaptation and virulence
- Intervention effect Exogenous Sspdhx-targeting dsRNA effectively silenced Sspdhx in S. sclerotiorum
- Intervention effect Exogenous Sspdhx-targeting dsRNA attenuated virulence of S. sclerotiorum
- Intervention effect Host-induced gene silencing in plants effectively silenced Sspdhx in S. sclerotiorum
- Intervention effect Host-induced gene silencing in plants attenuated virulence of S. sclerotiorum
- Recommendation Sspdhx is a promising target for RNA-based control strategies against Sclerotinia disease
