Sequential breakdown of the complex Cf-9 leaf mould resistance locus in tomato by Fulvia fulva

This study identifies Avr9B, an effector that allows F. fulva to overcome Cf-9B resistance in tomato, showing sequential breakdown of the Cf-9 locus.

Cell wall carbohydrate dynamics during the differentiation of infection structures by the apple scab fungus, Venturia inaequalis

This study investigates cell wall carbohydrate dynamics in Venturia inaequalis during infection structure differentiation, revealing down-regulation of immunogenic carbohydrate biosynthesis genes and chitosan coating of infection structures.

The Venturia inaequalis effector repertoire is expressed in waves and is dominated by expanded families with predicted structural similarity to avirulence proteins from other plant-pathogenic fungi

The paper characterizes the temporal expression of effector candidates in Venturia inaequalis during apple infection and identifies structural similarities to avirulence proteins from other fungi.

CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing and rapid detection of gene-edited mutants using high-resolution melting in the apple scab fungus, Venturia inaequalis

Apoplastic effector candidates of a foliar forest pathogen trigger cell death in host and non-host plants

The paper identifies apoplastic effector candidates from Dothistroma septosporum that trigger cell death in both host and non-host plants, suggesting their recognition by immune receptors.

Specific hypersensitive response-associated recognition of new apoplastic effectors from Cladosporium fulvum in wild tomato

The paper identifies new Cf genes in wild tomato by screening for hypersensitive response recognition of Cladosporium fulvum effectors.
