Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE8517: Magnaporthe oryzae gene expression during biotrophic invasion of rice using version 2 of the Agilent Magnaporthe grisea Array (G4137B). GSE8518: Rice gene expression during biotrophic invasion by the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae using the Agilent Rice Array (G4138A). Keywords: SuperSeries Refer to individual Series
Project description:Mycelium from the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae was grown in both rich medium and under nutrient limiting conditions. Genes were identified that were more highly expressed in one condition as compared to the other.

Project description:We created a mutant in the MAP kinase-encoding Pmk1 gene of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (pmk1AS) that renders the gene sensitive to inhibition by 1NA-PP1. Fungal gene expression was compared during infection of rice sheath by the M. oryzae pmk1AS mutant in the presence and absence of 1NA-PP1.
Project description:Analysis of transgenic rice overexpressing OsWRKY28, a WRKY type transcription factor. Results provide insight into the role of OsWRKY28 in the defense signaling against rice blast fungus. Expression profiling in wild-type and OsWRKY28 overexpressing rice leaves infected with or without Magnaporthe Oryzae was analyzed using one-color method with three biological replicates.
Project description:We report that the homeobox trasncription factor called HOX7 controls hyphae-associated genes, autophagy and cell cycle related genes necessary for appressorium development in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. We also report that the ste transcription factor MST12 regulates gene functions involved in septin reorientation.
Project description:The rice-blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae is disseminated using a three-celled spore or conidium. Upon landing on the surface of a rice leaf, the conidium germinates and forms a specialised structure for entry into the host plant - the appressorium. In this study we have followed gene expression thoughout germination of the conidium and formation of the appressorium to identify genes that may be important for appressorium function. We have also compared gene expression in the wild-type germinating conidium at four hours to a mutant strain deleted for the MAP kinase pmk1. The pmk1 mutant is unable to form appressoria.
Project description:Mycelium from the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae was grown in both rich medium and under nutrient limiting conditions. Genes were identified that were more highly expressed in one condition as compared to the other. Samples were taken from mycelium grown in both complete medium and in glucose minimal medium. One replicate for each sample.
