The hemibiotrophic fungi Colletotrichum gloeosporioides can cause anthracnose in rubber trees. By searching the genome of the fungal pathogen, the BAS2 encoding a biotrophy-associated secreted protein was identified. In the present study, the knockout mutants of BAS2 were constructed and the functions of BAS2 were investigated. The in vitro assays showed that BAS2 was not necessary for vegetative growth but was important for normal asexual reproduction in C. gloeosporioides . Pathogenicity assays suggested that BAS2 was involved in the process of the pathogen penetrating into the host tissue. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that BAS2 showed secretional characteristics in the fungi, and BAS2 mainly function as a cytoplasmic protein after being secreted into the host cell. Extracellular proteomics analysis revealed that BAS2 was required for the secretion of a series of proteins, which were important for the pathogenicity of C. gloeosporioides . These data lead to a better understanding of the biotrophy-associated secreted protein in regulating the pathogenesis of C. gloeosporioides .
