ABC protein CgABCF2 is required for asexual and sexual development, appressorial formation and plant infection in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides
Open accessAbstract
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins are exclusively found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In this study, we have characterized a gene from Glomerella leaf spot pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides that encodes an ABC protein, whose function to date remains unknown. We designated this gene as CgABCF2. Deletion of CgABCF2 showed drastic reduction both growing rate and conidial production in C. gloeosporioides. The Δcgabcf2 mutant did not form the appressoria, lost the capability to infect apple and failed to form lesions on the wounded leaves and fruits. The C. gloeosporioides native CgABCF2 fully recovered defect of the Δcgabcf2 mutant. These data indicated that CgABCF2 was required for fungal development and invasion. The transcriptions of six pectolytic enzymes genes (CgPG1, CgPG2, pnl-1, pnl-2, pelA and pelB) significantly reduced in the Δcgabcf2 mutant, indicating that deletion of CgABCF2 impaired the fungal necrotrophic growth. In addition, CgABCF2 mediated sexual development through the positive regulation of the gene MAT1-2-1 expression. These results indicated that CgABCF2 underlies the complex process governing morphogenesis, sexual and asexual reproduction, appressorial formation and pathogenicity in C. gloeosporioides.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
