The non-ribosomal peptide synthetase_C mediates abiotic stress tolerance and modulates DNA damage responses in Metarhizium anisopliae.

BACKGROUND Abiotic stresses are a major limitation to the efficacy of entomopathogenic fungi in natural ecosystems and in biocontrol applications, yet the mechanisms that confer stress tolerance in Metarhizium anisopliae remain poorly understood. Non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) are key enzymes involved in fun...
