Mitochondria are known for their role in ATP production and generation of reactive oxygen species, but little is about the mechanism early involvement plant stress signaling. The mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) salicylic acid (SA) signaling was analyzed using two mutants: disrupted response1 (dsr1), which a point mutation SDH1 identified loss SA screen, knockdown mutant (sdhaf2) SDH assembly factor 2 that required FAD insertion into SDH1. Both mutants showed strongly decreased...
Crop breeding for improved disease resistance may be achieved through the manipulation of host susceptibility genes. Previously we identified multiple Arabidopsis mutants known as enhanced stress response1 (esr1) that have defects in a KH-domain RNA-binding protein and conferred increased to root fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. Here, screening same mutagenized population discovered two further response also F. These leaf (Alternaria brassicicola) an aphid pest (Myzus persicae), but not...
