Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a devastating necrotrophic plant pathogen with a worldwide distribution. Cell wall-degrading enzymes and oxalic acid are important to the virulence of this pathogen. Here, we report a novel secretory protein, Ss-Rhs1, which is essential for the virulence of S. sclerotiorum. Ss-Rhs1 is believed to contain a typical signal peptide at the N-terminal and eight rearrangement hotspot (Rhs)...
