From: The Venturia inaequalis effector repertoire is dominated by expanded families with predicted structural similarity, but unrelated sequence, to avirulence proteins from other plant-pathogenic fungi

Microscopic and transcriptomic profile of Venturia inaequalis during infection of detached leaves from susceptible apple cultivar ‘Royal Gala’. A Microscopic evaluation of V. inaequalis during colonization of apple leaves. Infection structures observed by bright-field microscopy were stained with aniline blue. Infected leaves are representative of material used in the RNA-seq transcriptome sequencing experiment. c: conidium; gt: germ tube; ap: appressorium; ecm: extracellular matrix; ph: primary hyphae. B Percentage (%) of paired RNA-seq reads mapped to the V. inaequalis genome relative to the total RNA-seq reads sequenced. Error bars represent standard deviation across four biological replicates. C Principal component analysis (PCA) of RNA-seq data from V. inaequalis during colonization of apple leaves and in culture on the surface of cellophane membranes (CMs) overlaying potato dextrose agar. Four biological replicates per time point are shown. hpi: hours post-inoculation; dpi: days post-inoculation
