Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Deletion of CcCAP2 affected C. chrysosperma vegetative growth.
- Observation Deletion of CcCAP3 affected C. chrysosperma vegetative growth.
- Association CcCAP2 contributed to C. chrysosperma virulence during interaction with Populus euramericana.
- Observation CcCAP3 was predicted to be GPI-anchored.
- Intervention effect Ectopic CcCAP2 expression in Nicotiana benthamiana promoted Botrytis cinerea infection.
- Intervention effect Ectopic CcCAP2 expression in Nicotiana benthamiana inhibited immune-related gene expression.
- Observation A poplar library screen gave the highest number of hits with RPB11.
- Association CcCAP1 and CcCAP2 interacted with RPB11 in validation assays.
- Intervention effect Silencing RPB11 caused a dwarf phenotype in the host plant.
- Intervention effect Silencing RPB11 reduced fungal colonisation of the host plant.
- Intervention effect Silencing RPB11 highly induced PR1 gene expression.
- Mechanism The authors infer that CcCAP1 and CcCAP2 target plant RPB11 to suppress host immunity and facilitate infection.
