Abstract:Fungi typically occur in environments where numerous and diverse other microbes occur as well, often resulting in fierce competition for nutrients and habitat. To support fungal fitness in these environments, they evolved various mechanisms that mediate direct antagonism towards niche competitors. Among these, the secretion of proteins with antimicrobial activities has been reported in fungi with diverse lifestyles. Recently, several plant-associated fungi were shown to rely on the secretion of antimicrobial e… Show more
