Explanation:
O 'toward' se conecta a 'pathogenic', ou seja 'pathogenic toward animals' quer dizer patogênico *para* animais.
Assim eu faria:
"The involvement of cyclophilin in pathogenicity was pointed out in fungi pathogenic toward animals or plants"
"O envolvimento da ciclofilina na patogenicidade foi salientado em fungos patogênicos para animais ou plantas"
