Abstract:Polarized actin cable from Spitzenkörper at the hyphal tip fuels filamentous growth in diverse biphasic fungal pathogens. This multi-component complex, featuring the actin nucleator Bni1 and other factors, initiates actin polymerization, guiding biphasic fungal growth and host infection. How dynamic assembly of Spitzenkörper and actin cable are achieved to support filamentous fungi that undergo multistage morphogenesis for host invasion remains unclear, includingMagnaporthe oryzae, which undergoes multistage m… Show more
