Rice blast disease (Magnaporthe grisea) causes significant economic damage every year either directly through crop loss or indirectly in the cost of fungicides. A key to developing effective resistance is gaining a better understanding of the host-pathogen interaction, which requires a thorough understanding of both the host and pathogen. Recognition of the rice blast fungus via major disease resistance genes generally involves detection of a fungal-specific molecule by the host plant. These recognition molecules are primarily thought to be proteins secreted by the fungus. Secreted proteins examined to date have been plant cell wall-degrading enzymes, such as two xylanases ofM. griseaXYN22 and XYN33 (Wu et al., 1995) and polygalacturonase and pectate lyase ofAspergillus nidulans(Dean and Timberlake, 1989); proteins involved in virulence, such as ECP1 and ECP2 ofCladosporium fulvum, and GAS 1 and GAS2 ofM. griseaare the virulence factors to tomato and rice, respectively (Lauge et al., 1997; Xue et al., 2002); MPG1 ofM. griseainvolved in pathogenecity (Talbot et al., 1993); or avirulence gene products, such as Avr-Pita and Pwl2 gene ofM. grisea(Orbach et al., 2000 and Sweigard et al., 1995); NIP 1 of barley scald pathogenRynchosporium secalis(Rohe et al., 1995) and AVR4, AVR9, ECP1, ECP2, ECP3, ECP4 and ECP5 ofC. fulvum(Joosten and de Wit, 1999 and Lauge et al., 2000). A more systematic examination of secreted proteins from the rice blast fungus would help to identify the fungal factors involved in the interaction with the plant host.
