Abstract

Highlights: [•] U. maydis umv (velvet) genes were characterized during maize infection. [•] umv1 is required for gall induction and teliospore formation on seedlings. [•] umv2 is required for full virulence on seedlings. [•] umv3 is not required for disease or sexual development on seedlings. [•] These are the first velvet family members from the Basidiomycota to be characterized. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
