Comparative evolutionary histories of fungal proteases reveal gene gains in the mycoparasitic and nematode-parasitic fungus Clonostachys rosea
Abstract Background The ascomycete fungus Clonostachys rosea sex shop arles (order Hypocreales) can control several important plant diseases caused by plant pathogenic fungi and nematodes.Subtilisin-like serine proteases are considered to play an important role in pathogenesis in entomopathogenic, mycoparasitic, and nematophagous fungi used for bio
