Identification and characterization of MPG1, a gene involved in pathogenicity from the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea.

NJ Talbot, DJ Ebbole, JE Hamer - The Plant Cell, 1993 - academic.oup.com
Differential cDNA cloning was used to identify genes expressed during infectious growth of
the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe grisea in its host, the rice plant. We characterized one of …

Transformation of Aspergillus nidulans by using a trpC plasmid.

MM Yelton, JE Hamer… - Proceedings of the …, 1984 - National Acad Sciences
We constructed a chimeric plasmid carrying a complete copy of the trifunctional trpC gene
from the Ascomycete fungus Aspergillus nidulans. This plasmid, designated pHY201, …

Infection-related development in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea

JE Hamer, NJ Talbot - Current Opinion in Microbiology, 1998 - Elsevier
Recent developments have been made in the identification of signal transduction pathways
and gene products involved in the infection-related development of the rice blast fungus, …

MAP kinase and cAMP signaling regulate infection structure formation and pathogenic growth in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea.

JR Xu, JE Hamer - Genes & development, 1996 - genesdev.cshlp.org
Many fungal pathogens invade plants using specialized infection structures called
appressoria that differentiate from the tips of fungal hyphae contacting the plant surface. We …

A mechanism for surface attachment in spores of a plant pathogenic fungus

JE Hamer, RJ Howard, FG Chumley, B Valent - Science, 1988 - science.org
Rice blast disease is caused by a fungus that attacks all above-ground parts of the rice plant.
In a study of the means by which the fungus attaches to the hydrophobic rice leaf surface, it …

Inactivation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase Mps1 from the rice blast fungus prevents penetration of host cells but allows activation of plant defense responses

JR Xu, CJ Staiger, JE Hamer - Proceedings of the National …, 1998 - National Acad Sciences
The rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, generates enormous turgor pressure within a
specialized cell called the appressorium to breach the surface of host plant cells. Here, we …
