Abstract

Genes encoding a type I polyketide synthase (PKS) (PKS12) and a putative laccase (Gip1) that are required for aurofusarin biosynthesis by Gibberella zeae are isolated. Targeted gene deletion and complementation analyses confirmed that both Gip1 and PKS12 are required for aurofusarin production in Gibberella zeae.
