The plant pathogenic fungus Verticillium dahliae has homologs of the clock genes [Cascant-Lopez et al., 2020], which are well described in Neurospora crassa [Diernfellner et al., 2020]. In N. crassa, frequency (Frq) and the Frq-interacting RNA helicase (Frh) interact and form the Frq-Frh complex [Ch...
Verticillium transcription activator of adhesion 3 (Vta3) is required for plant root colonization and pathogenicity of the soil-borne vascular fungus Verticillium dahliae [Bui et al., 2018]. In this study, we discovered that Vta3 contributes to the virulence of V. dahliae on tomato plants by promoti...
Velvet domain proteins coordinate developmental processes and secondary metabolism in fungi. In this study, we characterized the role of all four velvet proteins in the life cycle of the plant pathogenic fungus Verticillium dahliae. From other fungi, the formation of different homo-and heterodimers ...
