What is Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (VdSOD1) mediates reactive oxygen species detoxification and modulates virulence in Verticillium dahliae about?
## Abstract The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a widespread defence mechanism in higher plants against pathogen attack and sometimes is the cause of cell death that facilitates attack by necrotrophic pathogens. Plant pathogens use superoxide dismutase (SOD) to scavenge ROS derived from their own metabolism or generated from host defence. The significance and roles of SODs in the vascular plant pathogen __Verticillium dahliae__ are unclear. Our previous study showed a significant upregulation of Cu/Zn‐SOD1 (VdSOD1) in cotton tissues following __V__. __dahliae__ infection, suggesting that it may play a role in pathogen virulence. Here, we constructed __VdSOD1__ deletion mutants (Δ__SOD1__) and investigated its function in scavenging ROS and promoting pathogen virulence. Δ__SOD1__ had normal growth and conidiation but exhibited significantly higher sensitivity to the intracellular ROS generator menadione. Despite lacking a signal peptide, assays in vitro by western blot and in vivo by confocal microscopy revealed that secretion of VdSOD1 is dependent on the Golgi reassembly stacking protein (VdGRASP). Both menadione‐treated Δ__SOD1__ and cotton roots infected with Δ_
