TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used mRNA profiles generated from microarray experiments to deduce the functions of genes encoding known and putative Arabidopsis transcription factors, showing that transcription factors are important in regulating plant responses to environmental stress.

TL;DR: Despite high similarity between responses mediated by the R genes R PS2 and RPM1 in wild-type plants, RPS2-mediated responses were strongly suppressed by the ndr1 mutation and the NahG transgene, whereas RPM1- mediated responses were not, which is consistent with the resistance phenotypes of these plants.

TL;DR: In this article, methods to identify genes, the expression of which are altered in response to pathogen infection, as well as the genes identified thereby and their corresponding promoters are provided.

TL;DR: It is speculated that the virulence function of AvrRpt2 requires removal of the N-terminal region to redirect the effector protein to a specific subcellular location in the host cell after translocation of the protein.

TL;DR: In this article, a procedure concerne des procedes visant a identifier des genes which are modifiee en response to an infection by a pathogene, ainsi que les genes identifies grâce au procede and leurs promoteurs correspondants.
