Apoplastic effector candidates of a foliar forest pathogen trigger cell death in host and non-host plants
Abstract Forests are under threat from pests, pathogens, and changing climate. A major forest pathogen worldwide is the hemibiotroph Dothistroma septosporum, which causes dothistroma needle blight (DNB) of pines. While D. septosporum uses effector proteins to facilitate host infection, it is current...
