Leptosphaeria maculans Effector Protein AvrLm1 Modulates Plant Immunity by Enhancing MAP Kinase 9 Phosphorylation

Summary: Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of blackleg disease in canola (Brassica napus), secretes an array of effectors into the host to overcome host defense. Here we present evidence that the L. maculans effector protein AvrLm1 functions as a virulence factor by interacting with the B. na...
