A glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) cDNA was isolated from the filamentous fungus Trichalenna hanianum in the course of a search for light-regulated genes in this organism. There is apparently only one copy of gpd in the T. hamianurn genome, and its sequence is most similar to that of other filamentous ascomycetes. Trichoderme grows in the soil as a saprophyte or mycoparasite. A brief pulse of blue light, or nutrient depletion, induces sporulation, which is accompanied by altered patterns of abundance of specific
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
