TL;DR

An effector pair, notably Six5-Avr2, in the fungus Fusarium oxysporum that is recognized by a single resistance gene in tomato, I-2 is identified, the first report of a pair of effectors being recognized by a single R gene.

How a pair of Fusarium effector proteins manipulates plant immunity

It is found that in the presence of Six5 Avr2 moves from cell-to-cell, which in susceptible plants contributes to virulence, but in I-2 containing plants induces resistance, which in I-2 containing plants induces resistance.

Multiple faces of Fusarium oxysporum effector protein Avr2

It was found that ΔspAvr2 transgenic tomato plants were attenuated in pathogen-associated molecular pattern-triggered immunity (PTI): flg22-induced growth inhibition, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and callose deposition were all greatly alleviated in ΔspAvr2 plants.
