The entomopathogenici fungus B. bassiana is of great imporatnce in biological control of insect pests. In integrated pest management (IPM) program, unsaturated fatty acids and their derivatives are used as fungicides. The compatibility of mycoinsecticides with fungicides has attracted more and more attention. The genome-wide exprssion analysis involved in fungal resonse to unsaturated fatty acids was analyzed by using high throughput sequencing (RNA-Seq) at different concentrations of linoleic acid. Our transcriptional profiles revealed that numerous differentially expressed genes (DEGs), of which involved in metabolism, cell transport and cell rescue, were significantly involved in the tolerance of B. bassiana to linoleic acid stress. Overall design: Comparison was conducted among total RNA obtained from B. bassiana stressed with different concentrations of linoleic acid. Less...
