A Necrotrophic Phytopathogen‐Derived <scp>GPI</scp> ‐Anchored Protein Functions as an Elicitor to Activate Plant Immunity and Enhance Resistance
Bibliographic record
Abstract
GPI-anchored proteins are widely distributed in eukaryotic cells. However, their functions are still poorly understood in necrotrophic pathogenic fungi. Here, based on Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transient expression screening, a novel secreted GPI-anchored protein, SsGP1, that induces plant cell death was characterised in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The homologues of SsGP1 are broadly distributed among ascomycetes. SsGP1 can activate plant immune responses, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst and the up-regulated expression of immunity genes, in a manner that is dependent on BAK1 but independent of SOBIR1. Treatment of plants with SsGP1 protein enhanced the resistance of Nicotiana benthamiana and Arabidopsis thaliana to S. sclerotiorum. Our findings reveal that SsGP1 functions as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) and is recognised by plants in a BAK1-dependent manner.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
