Different Requirements for EDS1 and NDR1 by Disease Resistance Genes Define at Least Two R Gene-Mediated Signaling Pathways in Arabidopsis

TL;DR: The results provide compelling evidence for the preferential utilization of either signaling component by particular R genes and thus define at least two disease resistance pathways and suggest that strong dependence on EDS1 or NDR1 is governed by R protein structural type rather than pathogen class.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of eds1, a mutation in Arabidopsis suppressing resistance to Peronospora parasitica specified by several different RPP genes.

TL;DR: An RPP-nonspecific locus called EDS1 appears to be a necessary component of the resistance response specified by several RPP genes and is likely to function upstream from the convergence of disease resistance pathways in Arabidopsis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The arms race is ancient history in Arabidopsis , the wildflower

TL;DR: The complete sequence of the Arabidopsis thaliana genome provides a framework for exploring the 'big bang' of R genes that occurred and how R genes evolved in plants from their associations with microorganisms, and for improving strategies for more sustainable deployment of disease resistance in crops.
Journal ArticleDOI

NDR1, a locus of Arabidopsis thaliana that is required for disease resistance to both a bacterial and a fungal pathogen.

TL;DR: Characterization of the ndr1-1 mutation suggests that a common step exists in pathways of resistance to two unrelated pathogens, and that a hypersensitive-like response was still induced by several of the strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intragenic recombination and diversifying selection contribute to the evolution of downy mildew resistance at the rpp8 locus of arabidopsis

TL;DR: In this paper, the RPP8 gene was cloned and the structure of alleles at this locus in resistant Landsberg erecta (L er -0) and susceptible Columbia (Col-0) accessions were compared.
