Other claims from this paper (11)
- Method / resource Sequencing yielded a N. lugens secretome of 1,140 protein-encoding genes.
- Observation Secretome analysis found conserved and rapidly evolving salivary proteins.
- Intervention effect Nl40 induced chlorosis in N. benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Nl32 induced a dwarf phenotype in N. benthamiana.
- Intervention effect Ectopic expression of six salivary proteins upregulated defense-related genes and callose deposition in N. benthamiana.
- Observation Six candidate effectors had higher expression in salivary glands than other tissues.
- Observation The six effectors had diverse structures in localization and cell-death domain analyses.
- Observation Nl28, Nl40 and Nl43 were N. lugens specific.
- Observation Nl12, Nl16 and Nl32 were conserved among insects.
- Observation The Nl40 family had many alternatively spliced isoforms.
- Observation The authors inferred a large effector repertoire and greater effector conservation in BPH than plant pathogens.
