Circadian oscillations in and the role of core clock components in secondary metabolism, development, and mycoparasitism against the phytopathogen .

Circadian clocks are important for an individual's fitness, and recent studies have underlined their role in the outcome of biological interactions. However, the relevance of circadian clocks in fungal-fungal interactions remains largely unexplored. We sought to characterize a functional clock in the biocontrol agent to assess its importance in the mycoparasitic interaction against the phytopathogen .
