Journal ArticleDOI

The basic leucine zipper transcription factor Moatf1 mediates oxidative stress responses and is necessary for full virulence of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae.

TL;DR: It is concluded that Moatf1 is necessary for full virulence of M. oryzae by regulating the transcription of laccases and peroxidases to impair reactive oxygen species-mediated plant defense.
Journal ArticleDOI

MoVam7, a conserved SNARE involved in vacuole assembly, is required for growth, endocytosis, ROS accumulation, and pathogenesis of Magnaporthe oryzae.

TL;DR: The studies indicate that MoVam7, like MoSec22, is a component of the SNARE complex whose functions in vacuole assembly also underlies the growth, conidiation, appressorium formation, and pathogenicity of M. oryzae.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) from Nicotiana benthamiana in the elicitor-triggered hypersensitive response and stomatal closure

TL;DR: Results indicate that VPE from N. benthamiana functions not only in elicitor-induced HR, but also in elicitors-induced stomatal closure, suggesting that V PE may be involved in elicit-triggered immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silencing of G proteins uncovers diversified plant responses when challenged by three elicitors in Nicotiana benthamiana.

TL;DR: Silencing of Gα, Gβ1 and Gβ2 has an effect on the transcription of plant defence-related genes when challenged by three elicitors, revealing that plant immunity systems employ both conserved and distinct G protein pathways to sense elicitors from distinct phytopathogens formed during plant-microbe evolution.
