A conserved fungal Egh16‐like effector suppresses host defense by disrupting ATP binding of wheat MPK3 Fusarium graminearum deploys the conserved effector Cee1 to interfere with wheat immune signaling. Upon entry into host cells, Cee1 associates with the ATP-binding domain of the immune kinase TaMPK3,...

Diagram describing how, when it infects apple (Malus domestica), the acid-producing fungal pathogen Valsa mali secretes VmAGP1 to hijack the receptor-like kinase MdLecRK2, triggering kinase oligomerization and subsequent phosphorylation of the vacuolar H+-ATPase MdVHAc”1. This cascade drives vacuolar acidification, malate compartmentalization, and cytosolic pH reduction, establishing an optimized microenvironment for fungal proliferation.
