An Integrative Multi-Source Evidence Framework for Prioritizing Virulence-Associated Pathways in Metarhizium brunneum
The proposed framework provides a reliable and scalable strategy for prioritizing virulence pathways in entomopathogenic fungi. It offers a solid foundation for subsequent transcriptomic validation, target screening, and functional characterization. This framework can also be applied to other fungi, contributing to the development of optimized biocontrol formulations.
