All DOG effectors from G. rostochiensis and G. pallida. Using a minimum of two DOG boxes, presence of a signal peptide, absence of transmembrane domains and temporal expression profiles consistent with a role in parasitism as selection criteria, we identify and separate all DOG effectors from G. rostochiensis (a) and G. pallida (b) into putative functional groups. For both (a) and (b), clusters were manually assigned to ‘strict’ or ‘inclusive’ subsets of the same overall expression pattern, based on how they conform to the observed pattern. c Experimental validation of two novel G. rostochiensis DOG effectors confirms the dorsal gland cell expression prediction. DOG_0102 (g04707) contains five DOG boxes in its promoter while DOG_0094 (g14226) contains six boxes
