Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation FocRnt2 expression was significant early in plant infection.
- Observation FocRnt2 had a functional secretion signal peptide.
- Observation FocRnt2 degraded banana total RNA in vitro.
- Observation FocRnt2 localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm of Nicotiana benthamiana leaves.
- Intervention effect Transient FocRnt2 expression suppressed salicylic acid and jasmonic acid signaling marker genes.
- Intervention effect Transient FocRnt2 expression suppressed reactive oxygen species accumulation.
- Intervention effect FocRnt2 deletion limited fungal penetration.
- Intervention effect FocRnt2 deletion reduced fusaric acid biosynthesis in Foc TR4.
- Intervention effect FocRnt2 deletion attenuated fungal virulence against banana.
- Intervention effect FocRnt2 deletion had little effect on fungal growth and stress sensitivity.
- Intervention effect Deletion mutants induced higher defense gene expression in banana.
- Mechanism The authors interpret FocRnt2 as contributing to full Foc TR4 virulence.
