  • Title: The Retromer Subunit CfVps29 Is Involved in the Growth, Development, and Pathogenicity of Colletotrichum fructicola.

    Abstract:
    Camellia oleifera is an edible oil tree species native to China. Anthracnose is a common disease of Ca. oleifera, which reduces the production of the trees and brings huge economic losses. We have previously identified the fungus Colletotrichum fructicola as the major pathogen of anthracnose in Ca. oleifera. The retromer complex participates in the intracellular retrograde transport of the cargos from the endosome to the trans-Golgi network in the eukaryotes. Vacuolar protein sorting 29 is a subunit of the retromer complex. Targeted CfVPS29 gene deletion revealed that CfVps29 is involved in growth, conidiation, and the response to cell wall stress. We further found that the ΔCfvps29 mutant was minimally pathogenic to Ca. oleifera leaves, as a result of its defect in appressorium formation. This study illustrated the crucial functions of CfVps29 in the development, cell wall stress response, and pathogenicity of C. fructicola and, therefore, identified it as a potential fungicide target for the control of anthracnose.
