Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Genomic and RNASeq data identified several symbiosis-upregulated putative SSP genes in the ericoid mycorrhizal fungus.
- Observation OmSSP1 was the most highly symbiosis up-regulated SSP and shared features with fungal hydrophobins despite lacking the Pfam hydrophobin domain.
- Observation Sequence alignment placed OmSSP1 within Class I hydrophobins.
- Observation A predicted signal peptide and a yeast signal sequence trap assay showed OmSSP1 secretion during symbiosis.
- Intervention effect OmSSP1 null mutants had reduced capacity to form ericoid mycorrhiza with Vaccinium myrtillus roots.
