Abstract
The entomopathogenic fungus (EPF) Metarhizium acridum, a typical filamentous fungus, has been utilized for the biological control of migratory locusts (Locusta migratoria manilensis). Fungal-specific transcription factors (TFs) play a crucial role in governing various cellular processes in fungi, although TFs with only the Fungal_trans domain remain poorly understood.
