Insights from the genome of the biotrophic fungal plant pathogen Ustilago maydis

Jörg Kämper, +80 more
- 02 Nov 2006 - 
TL;DR: The discovery of the secreted protein gene clusters and the functional demonstration of their decisive role in the infection process illuminate previously unknown mechanisms of pathogenicity operating in biotrophic fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene discovery and transcript analyses in the corn smut pathogen Ustilago maydis : expressed sequence tag and genome sequence comparison

TL;DR: In this paper, several expressed sequence tag (EST) libraries were generated from a variety of Ustilago maydis cell types to identify differentially abundant transcripts and to detect evidence of alternative splicing and anti-sense transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI

Read length and repeat resolution: exploring prokaryote genomes using next-generation sequencing technologies.

TL;DR: A simple model of repeat assembly is developed and test that, for any read length, can estimate the occurrence of unresolvable repeats in a genome, and thus predict the number of gaps that would need to be closed to produce a complete sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional Response of Rhodococcus aetherivorans I24 to Polychlorinated Biphenyl-Contaminated Sediments

TL;DR: The results indicate that the transcriptional response of R. aetherivorans I24 to PCBs, in both medium and sediment, is primarily directed towards reducing oxidative stress, rather than catabolism.
