A Non-Host Pathogen Elicitor Induces Blast Resistance Mediated by OsNAC78-Pir7b Module in Rice
A Non-Host Pathogen Elicitor Induces Blast Resistance Mediated by OsNAC78-Pir7b Module in Rice
Plants exhibit broad-spectrum and persistent resistance induced by non-host pathogens. Previous studies have found that syringolin A secreted by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae can activate the expression of defense-related gene Pir7b in non-host rice, but the underlying mechanism remains ambiguous. In this study, we found that OsNAC78, a transcription factor upstream of Pir7b, is possible to participate in the immune pathway.
