Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding and exploiting late blight resistance in the age of effectors

TL;DR: Genome-wide catalogs of P. infestans effectors are available, enabling effectoromics approaches that accelerate R gene cloning and specificity profiling and monitoring effector allelic diversity in pathogen populations can assist in R gene deployment in agriculture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ten things to know about oomycete effectors

TL;DR: A historical perspective on oomycete genetic research is provided and the state of the art in effector biology of plant pathogenic oomyCetes is summarized by describing what the authors consider to be the 10 most important concepts about oomykete effectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single amino acid mutations in the potato immune receptor R3a expand response to Phytophthora effectors.

TL;DR: A gain-of-function random mutagenesis screen of the potato NB-LRR immune receptor R3a is undertook to study how this protein responds to the effector protein AVR3a from the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, contributing to understanding how NB- LRR receptor specificity can be modulated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent developments in effector biology of filamentous plant pathogens

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the most interesting features of a representative set of filamentous pathogen effectors and highlight recent findings, including linear motifs that mediate translocation inside host cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomato I2 Immune Receptor Can Be Engineered to Confer Partial Resistance to the Oomycete Phytophthora infestans in Addition to the Fungus Fusarium oxysporum

TL;DR: The results suggest that synthetic immune receptors can be engineered to confer resistance to phylogenetically divergent pathogens and indicate that knowledge gathered for one NLR could be exploited to improve NLR from other plant species.
