[HTML][HTML] Two distinct secretion systems facilitate tissue invasion by the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae

MC Giraldo, YF Dagdas, YK Gupta, TA Mentlak… - Nature …, 2013 - nature.com
To cause plant diseases, pathogenic micro-organisms secrete effector proteins into host
tissue to suppress immunity and support pathogen growth. Bacterial pathogens have evolved …

Septin-Mediated Plant Cell Invasion by the Rice Blast Fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae

YF Dagdas, K Yoshino, G Dagdas, LS Ryder, E Bielska… - Science, 2012 - science.org
To cause rice blast disease, the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae develops a pressurized dome-shaped
cell called an appressorium, which physically ruptures the leaf cuticle to gain entry to …

An effector of the Irish potato famine pathogen antagonizes a host autophagy cargo receptor

YF Dagdas, K Belhaj, A Maqbool, A Chaparro-Garcia… - Elife, 2016 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.10856.001 Plants use autophagy to safeguard against infectious diseases.
However, how plant pathogens interfere with autophagy-related processes is unknown. Here, …

NADPH oxidases regulate septin-mediated cytoskeletal remodeling during plant infection by the rice blast fungus

LS Ryder, YF Dagdas, TA Mentlak… - Proceedings of the …, 2013 - National Acad Sciences
The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae infects plants with a specialized cell called an
appressorium, which uses turgor to drive a rigid penetration peg through the rice leaf cuticle. …

[HTML][HTML] Anti-Apoptotic Machinery Protects the Necrotrophic Fungus Botrytis cinerea from Host-Induced Apoptotic-Like Cell Death during Plant Infection

N Shlezinger, A Minz, Y Gur, I Hatam, YF Dagdas… - PLoS …, 2011 - journals.plos.org
Necrotrophic fungi are unable to occupy living plant cells. How such pathogens survive first
contact with living host tissue and initiate infection is therefore unclear. Here, we show that …

Emerging oomycete threats to plants and animals

…, B Petre, R Kellner, YF Dagdas… - … of the Royal …, 2016 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Oomycetes, or water moulds, are fungal-like organisms phylogenetically related to algae.
They cause devastating diseases in both plants and animals. Here, we describe seven …

ATG8 expansion: a driver of selective autophagy diversification?

…, A Maqbool, S Kamoun, YF Dagdas - Trends in plant …, 2017 - cell.com
Selective autophagy is a conserved homeostatic pathway that involves engulfment of
specific cargo molecules into specialized organelles called autophagosomes. The ubiquitin-like …

Nine things to know about elicitins

L Derevnina, YF Dagdas, JC De la Concepcion… - New …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Elicitins are structurally conserved extracellular proteins in Phytophthora and Pythium oomycete
pathogen species. They were first described in the late 1980s as abundant proteins in …

A sensor kinase controls turgor-driven plant infection by the rice blast fungus

LS Ryder, YF Dagdas, MJ Kershaw, C Venkataraman… - Nature, 2019 - nature.com
The blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae gains entry to its host plant by means of a specialized
pressure-generating infection cell called an appressorium, which physically ruptures the …

The Plant Membrane-Associated REMORIN1.3 Accumulates in Discrete Perihaustorial Domains and Enhances Susceptibility to Phytophthora infestans

TO Bozkurt, A Richardson, YF Dagdas… - Plant …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Filamentous pathogens such as the oomycete Phytophthora infestans infect plants by
developing specialized structures termed haustoria inside the host cells. Haustoria are thought to …
