Genetics of Phytopathogenic Fungi

  • Chapter
Progress in Botany / Fortschritte der Botanik

Part of the book series: Progress in Botany/Fortschritte der Botanik ((BOTANY,volume 57))

Abstract

The complex interaction of fungal pathogens and their hosts has been the subject of an exponentially growing number of publications in the past years. This chapter represents an update of the last article in this series (Tudzynski and Weltring 1994) and focuses on the application of molecular genetic techniques, which allow the investigation of previously intractable problems; they have revolutionized the study of this interaction process (as predicted in the above-mentioned article), though some damage to established theories had to be accepted. Considerable progress has been achieved in the use of molecular techniques (RAPD, PFGE, RFLP) in the identification and differentiation of fungi, in the characterization and functional analysis of pathogenicity factors (here some surprising results were obtained) and in the molecular understanding of gene-for-gene relationships (avirulence/resistance genes).
