Identification and molecular genetic analysis of the cichorine gene cluster in Aspergillus nidulans.


ABSTRACT: We recently demonstrated that the phytotoxin cichorine is produced by Aspergillus nidulans. Through a set of targeted deletions, we have found a cluster of seven genes that are required for its biosynthesis. Two of the deletions yielded molecules that give information about the biosynthesis of this metabolite.
