ABSTRACT
Actin filaments play an important role in fungal life processes such as growth, development and cytokinesis. The expression vector pSULPH-Lifeact-mCherry of fluorescent mCherry-labeled actin was transferred into Verticillium dahliae Kleb. wild type V592 by the genetic transformation system mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens to obtain the stable fluorescent labeled actin strain V592/Lifeact-mCherry. Then we detected its biological phenotype and the dynamic changes of actin fluorescence during the process of spore germination, mycelial growth and development. There was no significant difference in the colony morphology, colonial growth rate, sporulation and germination rate between the fluorescent labeled actin strain and the wild type. The actin fluorescence signal was observed at the tip of the conidia and hyphae and the septum clearly. Actin participated in the formation of the contractile actomyosin ring (CAR) during cytokinesis by observing the dynamic behavior of the actin in the process of hyphal septum formation. The fluorescent labeled actin strain can be used to study the dynamics of actin in fungal development to provide theoretical and practical support for further study of the mechanism of actin in fungal development and pathogenesis.
