Obligate biotrophic powdery mildew fungi infect a wide range of economically important plants. These fungi often deliver effector proteins into the host tissues to suppress plant immunity and sustain infection. The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is one of the most important signals that activate plant immunity against pathogens. However, how powdery mildew effectors interact with host SA signalling is poorly understood. Isochorismatase (ISC) effectors from two other filamentous pathogens have been found to inhibit host SA biosynthesis by hydrolysing isochorismate, the main SA precursor in the plant cytosol. Here, we identified an ISC effector, named EqIsc1, from the rubber tree powdery mildew fungus Erysiphe quercicola. In ISC enzyme assays, EqIsc1 displayed ISC activity by transferring isochorismate to 2,3‐dihydro‐2,3‐dihydroxybenzoate in vitro and in transgenic Nicotiana benthamiana plants. In EqIsc1‐expressing transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana, SA biosynthesis and SA‐mediated immune response were significantly inhibited. In addition, we developed an electroporation‐mediated transformation method for the genetic manipulation of E. quercicola. Inoculation of rubber tree leaves with EqIsc1‐silenced E. quercicola strain induced SA‐mediated immunity. We also detected the translocation of EqIsc1 into the plant cytosol during the interaction between E. quercicola and its host. Taken together, our results suggest that a powdery mildew effector functions as an ISC enzyme to hydrolyse isochorismate in the host cytosol, altering the SA biosynthesis and immune response.
