The Pathogen-Host Interactions Database (PHI-base) Provides Insights into Generic and Novel Themes of Pathogenicity
Fungal and oomycete pathogens of plants and animals are a major global problem.In the last 15 years, many genes required for pathogenesis have been determined for over 50 different species.Other studies have characterized effector genes (previously read more termed avirulence genes) required to activate host responses.By studying these types of pat
