Inappropriate expression of an NLP effector in colletotrichum orbiculare impairs infection on cucurbitaceae cultivars via plant recognition of the C-terminal region
The hemibiotrophic pathogen Colletotrichum orbiculare preferentially expresses a necrosis and ethylene-inducing peptide 1 (Nep1)-like protein named NLP1 during the switch to necrotrophy. Here, we report that the constitutive expression of NLP1 in C. orbiculare blocks pathogen infection in multiple C...
