Functional Characterization of Ao4g24: An Uncharacterized Gene Involved in Conidiation, Trap Formation, Stress Response, and Secondary Metabolism in Arthrobotrys oligospora
Arthrobotrys oligospora is a typical nematode-trapping (NT) fungus, which can secrete food cues to lure, capture, and digest nematodes by triggering the production of adhesive networks (traps).Based on genomic and proteomic analyses, multiple pathogenic genes and proteins involved in trap formation have been characterized; however, there are numero
