Identification and functional characterization of RXLR effector proteins that are conserved between downy mildew pathogens and Phytophthora species

Diverse pathogens secrete effector proteins into plant cells to manipulate host cellular processes. The genome of Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa), the causative agent of downy mildew of Arabidopsis, contains at least 134 candidate RXLR effector genes. These genes contain an RXLR motif required...
