The Fusarium graminearum genome reveals more secondary metabolite gene clusters and hints of horizontal gene transfer.

Fungal secondary metabolite biosynthesis genes are of major interest due to the pharmacological properties of their products (like mycotoxins and antibiotics). The genome of the plant pathogenic fungus Fusarium graminearum codes for a large number of candidate enzymes involved in secondary metabolit...
