Research Abstract |
For investigation of gene functions, several strategies have been established. Of these, gene targeting is generally thought to be the most powerful method. Gene targeting is achieved through the homologous recombination between endogenous genome and foreign marker. However, the frequency of homologous recombination in Magnaporthe oryzae is low. To raise the frequency of homologous recombination, we applied double-strand DNA breaks in target gene using some nucleases that are used in other organisms. Here, we constructed a detection marker system of homologous recombination in M. oryzae. We also revealed that treatment of nucleases increase efficiency of homologous recombination and established on optimal condition.
