Conserved fungal effector suppresses PAMP-triggered immunity by targeting plant immune kinases [Agricultural Sciences]

Plant pathogens have optimized their own effector sets to adapt to their hosts. However, certain effectors, regarded as core effectors, are conserved among various pathogens, and may therefore play an important and common role in pathogen virulence. We report here that the widely distributed fungal effector NIS1 targets host immune...
