Unraveling fungal endolysosomal network as a potential target for effective disease control

This study identifies key components of the fungal endolysosomal network and shows that targeting them reduces fungal pathogenicity.

The penetration ring is a novel infection structure formed by the penetration peg for invading plant cell membrane in rice blast fungus

This paper identifies a novel penetration ring formed by secreted proteins in the rice blast fungus after cell wall penetration, which persists at the plasma membrane interface during invasion.
