Journal ArticleDOI
The Ifchit1 chitinase gene acts as a critical virulence factor in the insect pathogenic fungus Isaria fumosorosea.
TL;DR: Biochemical assays indicate an important role for the Ifchit1 chitinase as a virulence factor in I. fumosorosea, and bioassays using diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, larvae revealed decreased infectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Host-dependent effects of a protease implicated in cuticle degradation on C. fumosorosea virulence are revealed, suggesting context-dependent requirements of cuticle degrading enzymes and their potentially differential roles in mediating virulence towards different hosts are discussed.
