From: Evolution of an endofungal Lifestyle: Deductions from the Burkholderia rhizoxinica Genome
Model of metabolic processes and host manipulating mechanisms deduced from the genome of B. rhizoxinica. Involvement of type III secretion system and LPS in symbiotic lifesytle have been demonstrated experimentally. Putative type III effectors were predicted by in silico methods. ABC = ATP-binding cassette superfamily, MFS = major facilitator superfamily, RND = resistance-nodulation-cell-division superfamily, EPS = exopolysaccharide, LPS = lipopolysaccharide, IM = inner membrane, OM = outer membrane.
