Verticillium dahliae is a wide-host-range fungal pathogen that causes soil-borne diseases in hundreds of dicotyledonous hosts. In search V. Vd991 cell death-inducing proteins, we identified pectate lyase (VdPEL1) exhibited pectin hydrolytic activity, which could induce strong death several plants. Purified VdPEL1 triggered defense responses and conferred resistance to Botrytis cinerea tobacco cotton Our results demonstrated the mutant VdPEL1rec lacking enzymatic activity lacked functions...

Abstract Fusarium oxysporum is an important soilborne fungal pathogen with many different formae speciales that can colonize the plant vascular system and cause serious crop wilt disease worldwide. We found a glycoside hydrolase family 12 protein FoEG1, secreted by F. , acted as pathogen‐associated molecular pattern (PAMP) targeting apoplast of plants to induce cell death. Purified FoEG1 triggered death in induced defence response enhance resistance plants. The ability was mediated...

Background Magnaporthe oryzae, the rice blast fungus, might secrete certain proteins related to plant-fungal pathogen interactions. Methodology/Principal Findings In this study, we report purification, characterization, and gene cloning of a novel hypersensitive response-inducing protein elicitor (MoHrip1) secreted by M. oryzae. The fraction was purified identified de novo sequencing, sequence matched genomic putative from oryzae strain 70-15 (GenBank accession No. XP_366602.1)....

BcGs1, a cell wall-degrading enzyme (CWDE), was originally derived from Botrytis cinerea. Our previous study revealed that BcGs1 could trigger defense responses and protect plants against various pathogens. We researched the response mechanism underlying this elicitation in tomato.We two domains were required for BcGs1's full necrosis activity. According to analysis quantitative real-time PCR of up-regulated proteins genes filtered by iTRAQ-based proteome approach, oxidative metabolism...

During pathogenic infection, hundreds of proteins that play vital roles in the Verticillium dahliae-host interaction are secreted. In this study, an integrated proteomic analysis secreted V. dahliae was performed, and a conserved secretory protein, designated VdCP1, identified as member SnodProt1 phytotoxin family. An expression vdcp1 gene revealed transcript is present every condition studied displays elevated throughout infection process. To investigate natural role VdCP1 dahliae, two...

Botrytis cinerea is one of the most notorious pathogenic species that causes serious plant diseases and substantial losses in agriculture throughout world. We identified BcXyl1 from B. exhibited xylanase activity. Expression gene was strongly induced infecting N. benthamiana tomato plants, deletion strains severely compromised virulence cinerea. strong cell death several activity independent its Purified triggered typically PTI responses conferred resistance to TMV tobacco plants. A 26-amino...

Alt a 1 family proteins (AA1s) have only been observed in the Dothideomycetes and Sordariomycetes classes of fungi, their biological functions remained poorly understood. Verticillium dahliae, soil-borne pathogen that causes plant wilt disease, secretes hundreds during process pathogenic infection, including AA1 member PevD1. In this study, we found pevd1 transcript was present all hosts studied (cotton, Arabidopsis, tomato, tobacco) showed elevated expression throughout infection process....

Abstract APETALA2/ethylene‐responsive factor (AP2/ERF) family transcription factors are well‐documented in plant responses to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses, but their roles mediating elicitor‐induced disease resistance remains largely unexplored. PevD1 is Verticillium dahliae secretory effector that can induce cotton tobacco plants. In our previous work, Nicotiana benthamiana ERF114 ( NbERF114 ) was identified screen genes differentially expressed response infiltration. Here,...

C3HC4-type RING finger proteins constitute a large family in the plant kingdom and play important roles various physiological processes of life. In this study, zinc gene was isolated from Nicotiana benthamiana. Sequence analysis indicated that encodes 24-kDa protein with 191 amino acids containing one typical domain; named NbZFP1. Transient expression pGDG-NbZFP1 demonstrated NbZFP1 localized to chloroplast, especially chloroplasts cells surrounding leaf stomata. Virus-induced silencing...
