Journal ArticleDOI
Salicylic acid and disease resistance in plants
TL;DR: Although it is still unclear whether this compound can serve as a long-distance messenger signaling the presence of a pathogen, its synthesis and accumulation are important requirements for defense responses.

In vivo analysis of plant promoters and transcription factors by agroinfiltration of tobacco leaves.
Yinong Yang,Rugang Li,Min Qi +2 more
TL;DR: Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression is a simple and efficient method for in vivo assays of plant promoters and transcription factors and the cis-regulatory regions in these promoters that are responsive to salicylic acid treatment or tobacco mosaic virus infection are identified.

Pathogenesis-related proteins in plants
TL;DR: The present work focused on the response of Plant Cell Wall Hydroxyproline-Rich Glycoproteins to Microbial Pathogens and their Elicitors and the role of thionins in the Resistance of Plants.

Stress-Induced Phenylpropanoid Metabolism.
Richard A. Dixon,Nancy L. Paiva +1 more
TL;DR: Limiting discussion to stress-induced phenylpropanoids eliminates few of the structural classes, because many compounds that are constitutive in one plant species or tissue can be induced by various stresses in another species or in another tissue of the same plant.

Protein kinases and phosphatases: The Yin and Yang of protein phosphorylation and signaling
TL;DR: Although the use of PP inhibitors shows that there is significant basal PP activity in cells, it has become apparent that the activities of PPs are regulated in a sophisticated manner by a combination of targeting and regulatory subunits and by specific inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
H2O2 from the oxidative burst orchestrates the plant hypersensitive disease resistance response
TL;DR: It is reported here that H2O2 from this oxidative burst not only drives the cross-linking of cell wall structural proteins, but also functions as a local trigger of programmed death in challenged cells and as a diffusible signal for the induction in adjacent cells of genes encoding cellular protectants.

A Receptor Kinase-Like Protein Encoded by the Rice Disease Resistance Gene, Xa21
Wen-Yuan Song,Guo-Liang Wang,Lili Chen,Han Suk Kim,Liya Pi,Tom Holsten,John M. Gardner,Bei Wang,Wen Xue Zhai,Li Huang Zhu,Claude M. Fauquet,Pamela C. Ronald +11 more
TL;DR: The rice Xa21 gene, which confers resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. race 6, was isolated by positional cloning and the sequence of the predicted protein, which carries both a leucine-rich repeat motif and a serine-threonine kinase-like domain, suggests a role in cell surface recognition of a pathogen ligand and subsequent activation of an intracellular defense response.
