Histone Acetyltransferase CfGcn5-Mediated Autophagy Governs the Pathogenicity of <i>Colletotrichum fructicola</i>
Shengpei Zhang, Yuan Guo, Sizheng Li, He Li
Abstract
Colletotrichum spp. is ranked in the top 10 plant fungal pathogens and serves as a model for the study of hemibiotrophic pathogens, but its molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis remain largely unknown. Among species of Colletotrichum , C. fructicola causes anthracnose disease on more than 50 plants, such as pears, apples, and the important, edible-oil plant Camellia oleifera .
