Fungi and oomycetes deliver effectors into living plant cells to suppress defenses and control plant processes needed for infection. Little is known about the mechanism by which these pathogens translocate effector proteins across the plasma membrane into the plant cytoplasm. The blast fungusMagnaporthe oryzaesecretes cytoplasmic effectors into a specialized biotrophic interfacial complex (BIC) before translocation. Here we show that cytoplasmic effectors within BICs are packaged into vesicles that are occasionally observed in the host cytoplasm. Live cell imaging with fluorescently-labeled rice showed that effector vesicles colocalize with plant plasma membrane and with clathrin light chain-1, a marker for clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). Inhibition of CME using Virus-Induced Gene Silencing (VIGS) and chemical treatments results in cytoplasmic effectors in swollen BICs lacking vesicles. In contrast, fluorescent marker co-localization, VIGS and chemical inhibitor studies failed to support a major role for clathrin-independent endocytosis in effector vesicle formation. Localization studies of two novel effectors, and of known effectors after CME inhibition, indicate that cytoplasmic effector translocation occurs underneath appressoria before invasive hyphal growth. Taken together, this study provides evidence that cytoplasmic effector translocation is mediated by clathrin-mediated endocytosis in BICs and suggests a role forM. oryzaeeffectors in co-opting plant endocytosis. |
