Heterodera schachtii Tyrosinase-like protein - a novel nematode effector modulating plant hormone homeostasis

Abstract The beet cyst nematode Heterodera schachtii causes major yield losses in sugar beet. Understanding the interaction between H. schachtii and its host plant is important for developing a sustainable management system. Nematode effectors play a crucial role in initializing and sustaining succe...
