In a previous transcriptomic study that involved hyphal growth on media and also studied the interaction between R. solani AG3-PT and potato sprouts at the early and late infection stages, peptidase-encoding genes showed strong differential expression at an early infection stage, and hydrolase-encoding genes targeting cell wall components were highly induced at the late infection stage (Zrenner et al., 2021). The gene discussed is LAP3; the disease is infection.
