Involvement of Ambient pH-sensing Signal Transduction Pathway of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in Control of Fungal Pathogenicity on Mango

摘要

Mango cultivation is an important industry in tropical and sub-tropical area of China. Anthracnose,mostly caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, is one of major disease of mango. It is still a challenge to develop more effective and more secure control methods for this disease, although much effort has been made for many years. It is believed that well-understanding of nature of interaction between microbe pathogen and plant hosts will be helpful to develop new method to control plant disease. On penetration into plant hosts, fungal pathogen will be expose to an exotic environment that is created by host or/and the pathogen.
