A clubroot pathogen effector targets cruciferous cysteine proteases to suppress plant immunity

Plant pathogen effector proteins are key to pathogen virulence. In susceptible host Brassicas, the clubroot pathogen, Plasmodiophora brassicae, induces the production of nutrient-sink root galls, at the site of infection. Among a list of 32 P. brassiae effector candidates previously reported by our...
