A conserved enzyme of smut fungi facilitates cell-to-cell extension in the plant bundle sheath
Smut fungi secrete effector proteins that suppress host plant immunity. Here the authors show that the corn smut effector Erc1 has 1,3-β-glucanase activity and promotes virulence in maize leaves by attenuating β-glucan-induced defense responses.
