The Pleiades are a cluster of fungal effectors that inhibit host defenses.

The Pleiades are a cluster of fungal effectors that inhibit host defenses.

Biotrophic plant pathogens secrete effector proteins to manipulate the host physiology. Effectors suppress defenses and induce an environment favorable to disease development. Sequence-based prediction of effector function is impeded by their rapid evolution rate. In the maize pathogen Ustilago mayd...
