Scope and Contents

Contents

Head blight, which is caused by mycotoxin-producing fungi of the genus Fusarium , is an economically important crop disease. We assessed the potential of host-induced gene silencing targeting the fungal cytochrome P450 lanosterol C-14α-demethylase (CYP51) genes, which are essential for ergosterol biosynthesis, to restrict fungal infection. In axeni...
