Effector-Mining in the Poplar Rust Fungus Melampsora larici-populina Secretome

摘要: The poplar leaf rust fungus, Melampsora larici-populina has been established as a tree-microbe interaction model. Understanding the molecular mechanisms controlling infection by pathogens appears essential for durable management of tree plantations. In biotrophic plant-parasites, effectors are known to condition host cell colonization. Thus, investigation candidate secreted effector proteins (CSEPs) is major goal in poplar–poplar interaction. Unlike oomycetes, fungal do not share conserved motifs and prediction relies on set priori criteria from reported bona fide effectors. Secretome prediction, genome-wide analysis gene families transcriptomics M. have led catalogs more than thousand proteins. Automatized effector-mining pipelines hold great promise rapid systematic identification prioritization CSEPs functional characterization. this review, we report discuss current status fungus secretome species.
