Genome-wide annotation, comparison and functional genomics of carbohydrate-active enzymes in legumes infecting Fusarium oxysporum formae speciales.

ABSTRACT: Fusarium wilt caused by soil borne ascomycetes fungi Fusarium oxysporum which has host-specific forms known as formae speciales (ff. spp.), apparently requires plant cell wall degrading enzymes (PCWDE) for successful invasion. In this study, 12 F. oxysporum ff. spp. were taken for genome-wide annotation and comparative analysis of CAZymes, with an assessment of secretory PCWDE and orthologues identification in the three legumes infecting ff. spp.  Further, transcriptomic analysis in two legumes infecting ff. spp. using publically available data was also done. The comparative studies showed Glycoside hydrolase (GH) families to be abundant and Principle Component Analysis (PCA) formed two distinct clusters of ff. spp. based on the CAZymes modules and families.
