Abstract

A Magnaporthe oryzae mutant B11 was obtained by Agrobacteriummediated transformation (AtMT) method, which enhanced the pathogenicity to barley. Southern blotting analysis indicated that TDNA insert in the B11 genome was single copy. TAILPCR and sequence alignment analysis indicated that the TDNA insertion broke the putative gene locus MG01679. By using PCRbased method, the DNA and cDNA of the gene locus were cloned and sequenced. The open reading frame of the gene includes one intron and two exons. And the coding sequence is 696 bp long and encodes a 231 amino acid peptide. Protein similarity analysis indicated that the product of the gene belongs to the ThiJ/PfpⅠ protein family, and the gene was thus assigned MgThiJ1. MgThiJ1 shows 57% similarity to FOXG_09029 from Fusarium oxysporum, and 54% similarity to FGSG_08979 from Fusarium graminearum in protein sequence. MgThiJ1 gene may be a negative regulator to vegetative growth and pathogenicity in filamentous fungi, and its specific mechanism need to be studied further.
