A specific fungal transcription factor controls effector gene expression and orchestrates the establishment of the necrotrophic pathogen lifestyle on wheat

The fungus Parastagonospora nodorum infects wheat through the use of necrotrophic effector (NE) proteins that cause host-specific tissue necrosis. The Zn Cys transcription factor PnPf2 positively regulates NE gene expression and is required for virulence on wheat. Little is known about other downst...
