TL;DR: A group of papers analyzes pathogen genomes to find the roots of virulence, opportunism, and life-style determinants in plant pathogens, suggesting that most effectors represent species-specific adaptations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Root Endophyte Colletotrichum tofieldiae Confers Plant Fitness Benefits that Are Phosphate Status Dependent
Kei Hiruma,Kei Hiruma,Nina Gerlach,Soledad Sacristán,Ryohei Thomas Nakano,Ryohei Thomas Nakano,Stéphane Hacquard,Barbara Kracher,Ulla Neumann,Diana Ramírez,Marcel Bucher,Richard J. O'Connell,Richard J. O'Connell,Paul Schulze-Lefert,Paul Schulze-Lefert +14 more
TL;DR: It is shown that C. tofieldiae is an endemic endophyte in natural Arabidopsis thaliana populations in central Spain and that the host’s phosphate starvation response (PSR) system controls Ct root colonization and is needed for plant growth promotion (PGP).
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Avirulence Paralogues in Cereal Powdery Mildew Fungi May Contribute to Parasite Fitness and Defeat of Plant Resistance

TL;DR: This work identifies AVRa10 and AVRk1 of barley powdery mildew fungus, and shows that they induce both cell death and inaccessibility when transiently expressed in Mla10 and Mlk1 barley (Hordeum vulgare) varieties, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of virulence and pathogenicity in plant pathogen populations
TL;DR: Evidence from viruses and cellular pathogens, mostly fungi and oomycetes, which differ widely in genomic complexity and in parasitism is compared to establish the generality of hypotheses on pathogenicity and virulence evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival trade-offs in plant roots during colonization by closely related beneficial and pathogenic fungi

TL;DR: Genetic signatures indicative of an evolutionary transition from pathogenic to beneficial lifestyles are identified, including a narrowed repertoire of secreted effector proteins, expanded families of chitin-binding and secondary metabolism-related proteins, and limited activation of pathogenicity-related genes in planta.
