The high‐affinity cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase MoPdeH is important not only for cAMP signalling and pathogenicity, but also for cell wall integrity (CWI) maintenance in the rice blast fungusMagnaporthe oryzae. To explore the underlying mechanism, we identified MoImd4 as an inosine‐5′‐monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) homologue that interacts with MoPdeH. Targeted deletion ofMoIMD4resulted in reducedde novopurine biosynthesis and growth, as well as attenuated pathogenicity, which were suppressed by exogenous xanthosine monophosphate (XMP). Treatment with mycophenolic acid (MPA), which specifically inhibits MoImd4 activity, resulted in reduced growth and virulence attenuation. Intriguingly, further analysis showed that MoImd4 promotes the phosphodiesterase activity of MoPdeH, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels, and MoPdeH also promotes the IMPDH activity of MoImd4. Our studies revealed the presence of a novel crosstalk between cAMP regulation and purine biosynthesis inM. oryzae, and indicated that such a link is also important in the pathogenesis ofM. oryzae.
