The role of Fusarium oxysporum effector protein Avr2 in resistance and pathogenicity
Heterologous expression of AVR2 in Arabidopsis thaliana caused enhanced susceptibility towards Verticillium dahliae, a xylem-colonizing fungal pathogen, and in tomato, AVR2 expression resulted in plants with elongated internodes and smaller leaf angles resulting in upward pointing leaves.
