| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The crucifer anthracnose fungal pathogen Colletotrichum higginsianum secretes effector proteins during host infection. In this study, we identified the two effector candidates, which they may suppress plant cell death as one of indicator of plant immune responses. On the other hand, we also identified a novel secreted protein which induces plant cell death. The putative homologs of these effector candidates were presented in several fungal genomes, indicating that functional homologs will be distributed in several plant fungal pathogens.
