Global transcriptome analysis of the pH regulator pacC in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides

ABSTRACT: Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, a widely distributed economically important agent in postharvest fruit disease thrives by massive secretion of ammonia to alkalize its environment and activate its pathogenicity genes. We sequenced the C. gloeosporioides transcriptomes of WT and a M-bM-^HM-^FpacC mutant, a major gene regulator under changing pH, under pH 7.0 in order to examine pacC regulation. Transcriptome analysis of the M-bM-^HM-^FpacC strain showed that 468 and 458 genes were up or down regulated, respectively. Both the up and down regulated genes were clustered into similar functions including: transporters to maintain cellular homeostasis, cell wall degrading enzymes to optimize pathogenicity and GATA-like transcription factors. Suggesting that activation of pacC under alkaline condit
