The Fungal-Specific Transcription Factor VpFSTF1 Is Required for Virulence in Valsa pyri

Valsa pyri is the causal agent of pear canker disease, which leads to enormous losses of pear production in eastern Asian, especially China. In this study, we identified a fungal-specific transcription factor 1 (termed as VpFSTF1) from V. pyri, which is highly conserved in fungi. To characterize its...
