The hemibiotrophic fungus Pyricularia (Magnaporthe) oryzae causes rice blast, which is the most devastating and widespread disease of rice [1]. Recently, wheat blast caused by P. oryzae has also become a serious threat to global wheat production [2, 3]. P. oryzae senses extracellular conditions and differentiates a specialized infection cell, called an appressorium, to penetrate the plant cuticle and cell wall; therefore, this fungus is not only considered as an important crop pathogen but also as a model organism to study infection-specific cell differentiation and molecular mechanisms of plant-pathogen interactions.
