A Conserved Magnaporthe oryzae Effector Counteracts the Rice Ubiquitin‐Proteasome System by Disrupting the E2 Function to Suppress Immunity

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4302-4316, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathogens commonly secrete effectors into host cells to facilitate invasion. In the host ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS), E3 ubiquitin ligases often target pathogen effectors for degradation, thereby enhancing immune responses. In turn, pathogen effectors frequently disrupt E3 ligase function to promote virulence. However, it remains largely

VmMon1-Ccz1 Complex Is Required for Conidiation, Autophagy, and Virulence in Valsa mali

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2022
Apple Valsa canker caused by Valsa mali is a serious disease in eastern Asia, especially in China. In our previous proteomics study, monensin sensitivity 1 protein in Valsa mali (VmMon1) was identified to be significantly upregulated during V.

Rhythmic conidiation in the blue-light fungus Trichoderma pleuroticola

, 2010
Trichoderma species conidiate in response to blue light, however, unlike in the blue-light model fungus Neurospora crassa, conidiation in Trichoderma spp. has been considered to be non-circadian.

The Fusarium sacchari Effector FsP4H1 Targets the Transcription Factor DPb to Disrupt Catalase‐Mediated H2O2 Homeostasis and Suppress Host Immunity

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
FsP4H1 interacts with the transcription factor DPb, a positive regulator of plant immunity, and facilitates its degradation via the 26S proteasome. This degradation leads to downregulation of catalase genes ScCAT9, ScCAT34 or NbCAT to enhance host susceptibility. ABSTRACT Pokkah boeng disease has been reported in nearly all countries where sugarcane is

Identification and functional characterization of the putative members of the CTDK-1 kinase complex as regulators of growth and development in Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus fumigatus

mBio, 2023
Asexual spores are the main vehicle used by fungi to disperse to new niches. The Eurotiomycete Aspergillus nidulans is the main reference for the study of the genetic/molecular control of asexual development.

ERAD Component MoHrd3 Facilitates Pathogenicity and Establishes a Direct Regulation on Autophagy in Magnaporthe Oryzae

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 24, 27 April 2026.
MoHrd3 plays a crucial role in regulating the pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae. As an ER‐associated degradation component, MoHrd3 involves in ER stress‐triggered autophagy. It facilitates the fusion between the autophagosome and the vacuole via enhancing the interaction between MoAtg8 and MoYpt7.
