Abstract
⺠Characterization of d-galacturonate catabolism in Botrytis cinerea is described. ⺠Targeted knockout of four genes yielded mutants unable to grow on pectic substrates. ⺠The first step of the pathway involves two non-homologous enzymes, BcGAR1 and BcGAR2. ⺠Virulence of mutants in the d-galacturonic acid catabolic pathway was unaltered.
