Fungal plant pathogens deploy a suite of secreted proteins, called effectors, to facilitate successful infection. Several fungal pathogens have been reported to secrete and accumulate their effector proteins in the host–pathogen interfacial spaces. Previously, we reported that the strain 104-T of the cucurbit anthracnose pathogenColletotrichum orbicularesecretes and accumulates mCherry-tagged effectors along with the formation of ring-shaped fluorescence signals beneath the appressoria. However, it was unclear whether these effector accumulation patterns occur in otherC. orbiculareisolates and other species belonging to theColletotrichumgenus. Here, we investigated the effector localization during host infection ofC. orbiculareMAFF306589,C. trifoliiMAFF305078, which infects alfalfa, andC. higginsianumMAFF305635, which infects Brassicaceae plants. We generated effector–reporter lines of each species, which constitutively expressed mCherry-tagged CoDN3 effector (CoDN3:mCherry). Immunoblotting analysis of the liquid culture fluids of the generated lines detected CoDN3:mCherry, which confirmed secretion of CoDN3:mCherry by fungal cells. Via inoculation assays in the corresponding host plants, we detected ring-shaped CoDN3:mCherry fluorescence around the appressorial invasion sites in all tested reporter lines. These results suggest that pathogens in theColletotrichumgenus have evolutionarily conserved the trait of effector secretion in the infection stage irrespective of differences in their hosts.
