Journal ArticleDOI
Tomato immune receptor Ve1 recognizes effector of multiple fungal pathogens uncovered by genome and RNA sequencing
Ronnie de Jonge,H. Peter van Esse,Karunakaran Maruthachalam,Melvin D. Bolton,Parthasarathy Santhanam,Mojtaba Keykha Saber,Zhao Zhang,Toshiyuki Usami,Bart Lievens,Krishna V. Subbarao,Bart P. H. J. Thomma +10 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Ave1 activates Ve1-mediated resistance and markedly contributes to fungal virulence, not only on tomato but also on Arabidopsis, and that Verticillium acquired Ave1 from plants through horizontal gene transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rhamnose synthase activity is required for pathogenicity of the vascular wilt fungus Verticillium dahliae
Parthasarathy Santhanam,J.C. Boshoven,Omar Salas,Kyle Bowler,Tohidul Islam,Mojtaba Keykha Saber,Grardy C. M. van den Berg,Maor Bar-Peled,Bart P. H. J. Thomma +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that rhamnose, although only a minor cell wall component, is essential for the pathogenicity of V. dahliae, and further analysis has revealed that VdNRS/ER deletion strains are impaired in the colonization of tomato roots.
