BACKGROUND
The brown planthopper (BPH) is one of the most destructive pests of rice, causing tremendous yield and economic losses every year. The fungal entomopathogen Metarhizium anisopliae was previously proved to have great potential for BPH biocontrol. Genome‐wide insight into the insect‐fungus interaction is crucial for genetic improvement of M. anisopliae to enhance its virulence to BPH but...
BACKGROUND
To initiate insect infection, entomopathogenic fungi produce diverse cuticle‐degrading enzymes. Of those, lipolytic enzymes participate in epicuticular lipid hydrolysis and thus facilitate fungal penetration through the outermost cuticular barrier of the insect host. The Far/CTF1‐type zinc finger transcription factors play an important role in the regulation of lipolytic activity and fungal...
