Pseudomonas Type III Effector AvrPto Suppresses the Programmed Cell Death Induced by Two Nonhost Pathogens in Nicotiana benthamiana and Tomato

Many gram-negative bacterial pathogens rely on a type III secretion system to deliver a number of effector proteins into the host cell. Though a number of these effectors have been shown to contribute to bacterial pathogenicity, their functions remain elusive. Here we report that AvrPto, an effector...
