Tomato PR1 protein prevents the fungal effector FolSvp2 from suppressing SlISP-mediated ROS production

Plants and pathogens are locked in a co-evolutionary arms race. Pathogens secrete effectors into plants, leading to effector-triggered susceptibility. Plants in turn respond through the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression of defence-related genes to defend themselves, which leads to effector-triggered immunity. Recently, Li et al. showed that FolSvp2… Source
