| Abstract | To identify plant-induced genes in the maize pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis we have developed a genetic screen that combines REMI (restriction enzyme mediated integration) mutagenesis with enhancer trapping using the gene for Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) as vital reporter. Of 2350 insertion mutants isolated, three were shown to express GFP only after the fungus had come into contact with the host maize plant. One of the genes tagged was mfa1, which encodes the pheromone precursor, while the second gene, pig2 , codes for a product that showed similarity to protein disulfide isomerase. The third integration event had occurred in a locus which we designated the p -locus. This locus contains 11 genes in a 24-kb stretch. Of these, pig3 , 4 , 5 , 6 and 7 show a plant-regulated expression pattern, while the other genes found at the locus (designated npi) do not. Of the plant-regulated genes only two were found to be similar to database entries: the pig4 product is related to membrane transporters of the major facilitator family, while the pig6 protein shows similarity to multidrug transporters. Detailed expression studies revealed that the five plant-regulated genes at the p -locus differ in their expression profiles. Mutants deleted for each of them showed no apparent phenotype, while the npi1 gene appeared to be essential. A viable deletion encompassing the entire p -locus could be generated when npi1 function was provided ectopically. This deletion mutant also showed no obvious alteration in virulence. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
