Abstract
⺠An IAM gene cluster was identified in Fusarium species of the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex. ⺠The cluster is fully functional in IAA production only in Fusarium proliferatum ET1. ⺠The gene cluster is also found in Colletotrichum, but not in any other fungal genome database. ⺠IAA production is regulated through transcription levels of the IaaM gene. ⺠Sequence analyses suggest the possibility of a horizontal gene transfer from bacteria to fungi.
