Deoxynivalenol (DON) is an important trichothecene mycotoxin produced by the cereal pathogenFusarium graminearum. DON is synthesized in organized endoplasmic reticulum structures called toxisomes. However, the mechanism for toxisome formation and the components of toxisomes are not yet fully understood. In a previous study, we found that myosin I (FgMyo1)‐actin cytoskeleton participated in toxisome formation. In the current study, we identified two new components of toxisomes, the actin capping proteins (CAPs) FgCapA and FgCapB. These two CAPs form a heterodimer inF. graminearum, and physically interact with FgMyo1 and Tri1. The deletion mutants ΔFgcapAand ΔFgcapBand the double deletion mutant ΔΔFgcapA/Bdramatically reduced hyphal growth, asexual and sexual reproduction and endocytosis. More importantly, the deletion mutants markedly disrupted toxisome formation and DON production, and attenuated virulencein planta. Collectively, these results suggest that the actin CAPs are associated with toxisome formation and contribute to the virulence and development ofF. graminearum.
