Abstract:Camellia oleifera, a woody plant that produces edible oil, is indigenous to China. The devastating disease of anthracnose inflicts significant financial losses on Ca. oleifera. The primary causative agent of anthracnose on Ca. oleifera is Colletotrichum fructicola. Chitin, a pivotal constituent of fungal cell walls, assumes a critical function in their proliferation and maturation. To study the biological functions of chitin synthase 1(Chs1) in C. fructicola, the CfCHS1 gene knockout mutants, ∆Cfchs1-1 and ∆Cf… Show more
