Abstract

See full text

In order to efficiently delete a large chromosomal region with a length of from several tens to hundreds kb such as a cluster of biosynthesis genes encoding a toxic substance such as Aflatoxin, the present invention provides a method for the deletion of a large chromosomal region comprising transforming a transformant having an increased frequency of homologous recombination due to suppression of a Ku gene, which is a mitosporic filamentous fungus belonging to Trichocomaceae with a vector for the deletion of a chromosomal region, which comprises a pair of homologous region arms having a nucleotide sequence that is homologous with a fragment at either end of said chromosomal region, and deleting the chromosomal region by means of homologous recombination between the resulting transformant and said vector.
