RNA-seq analyses of Fusarium graminearum wild-type GZ03639 and toxoflavin-sensitive mutant under toxoflavin condition

Bacterial pathogen Burkholderia glumae and fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum cause similar disease symptoms and are often co-isolated from rice heads, inferring interactions between the two pathogens. F. graminearum is resistant to the bacterial toxin toxoflavin, a strong anti-microbial activity, produced by B. glumae. We isolated a toxoflavin-sensitive mutant from transcription factor deletion mutant library of F. graminearum. To understand genome-wide transcriptional profiling, we performed RNA-seq analyses of F. graminearum wild-type strain GZ03639 and toxoflavin-sensitive mutant strain, ∆GzZC190, under toxoflavin condition. Two libraries constructed: fungal culture containing toxoflavin (100 mg l-1) of Fusarium graminearum GZ03639 wild-type and ∆GzZC190 mutant strain.
