Nuclear Import of a Secreted “Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” Protein is Temperature Dependent and Contributes to Pathogenicity in Nicotiana benthamiana

“Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus” (CLas), one of the causal agents of citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), secretes proteins with functions that are largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that CLIBASIA_00460, one of the CLas-encoded Sec-dependent presecretory proteins, might contribute to the phyt...
