Fusarium: Genomics, Molecular and Cellular Biology

The first chapter gives an overview of Fusarium. Subsequent chapters deal with sex and fruiting; genome structural dynamics; molecular genetics and genomic approaches to studying pathogenesis in wheat; proteomic analysis of the fungus-host interaction; repeat-induced point mutation, DNA methylation and heterochromatin in Fusarium graminearum (Gibberella zeae); the nitrogen regulation network and its impact on secondary metabolism and pathogenicity; the diversity of polyketide synthases; plant responses to Fusarium metabolites.
