Genome-wide analyses of Fusarium fujikuroi reveal complex regulation of secondary metabolism and new metabolites

ABSTRACT: Investigation of whole genome gene expression of the Fusarium fujikuroi wild type IMI58289 under gibberellin-inducing and -repressing conditions. Fusarium fujikuroi is a biotechnologically important fungus due to its almost unique ability to produce gibberellic acids (GAs), a family of phytohormones. The fungus was already described about 100 years ago as the causative agent of Bakanae (foolish seedling) disease of rice. Beside GAs, the fungus is known to produce some pigments and mycotoxins, but for only eight products the biosynthetic genes are known. Here we present a high-quality genome sequence of the first member of the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex (GFC), that allowed de novo genome assembly with 12 scaffolds corresponding to the 12 chromosomes. In this work, we focused on i
