The blast effector Pwl2 is a virulence factor that modifies the cellular localisation of host protein HIPP43 to suppress immunity
2024-01-23
Abstract excerpt
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae secretes a battery of effector proteins to facilitate host infection. Among these effectors, Pwl2 was first identified as a host specificity determinant for infection of weeping lovegrass ( Eragrostis curvula ) and is also recognised by the barley Mla3 resistance gene. However, its biological activity is not known. Here we show that PWL2 expression is regulated by the Pm...
