He, Y., Kim, S.-B., & Balint-Kurti, P. (2019, January 29). Planta, Vol. 249, pp. 1477–1485.

By: Y. He n, S. Kim n  & P. Balint-Kurti n 

Contributors: Y. He n, S. Kim n  & P. Balint-Kurti n 

author keywords: Hypersensitive response; Maize; Mitochondrial electron transport chain; Reactive oxygen species; Resistance genes
MeSH headings : Cytochromes b / genetics; Cytochromes b / metabolism; Cytochromes c1 / genetics; Cytochromes c1 / metabolism; Disease Resistance / genetics; Disease Resistance / physiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Proteins / genetics; Plant Proteins / metabolism; Quantitative Trait Loci / genetics; Reactive Oxygen Species / metabolism; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity; Plant Stress Responses and Tolerance; Plant Gene Expression Analysis
TL;DR: It is shown that a gene at this locus, GRMZM2G318346 which encodes a cytochrome b–c1 complex subunit seven (ZmQCR7), an important part of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, can suppress HR mediated by Rp1-D21 in a transient expression assay and that Arabidopsis homologs of ZmQ CR7 can also suppress NLR-induced HR.

BMC Plant Biology, 19(1).

By: Y. He n, S. Karre n, G. Johal *, S. Christensen * & P. Balint-Kurti n 

Contributors: Y. He n, S. Karre n, G. Johal *, S. Christensen * & P. Balint-Kurti n 

author keywords: Hypersensitive response; Maize; Polygalacturonase
MeSH headings : Apoptosis / genetics; Apoptosis / physiology; Chromosome Mapping; Chromosomes, Plant; Genes, Plant; Leucine; Plant Proteins / chemistry; Plant Proteins / genetics; Plant Proteins / physiology; Polygalacturonase / chemistry; Polygalacturonase / genetics; Polygalacturonase / physiology; Recombination, Genetic; Repetitive Sequences, Amino Acid; Tobacco / genetics; Zea mays / enzymology; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / immunology; Zea mays / physiology
topics (OpenAlex): Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity; Plant Virus Research Studies; Plant tissue culture and regeneration
TL;DR: ZmPGH1 functions as a suppressor of programmed cell death induced by at least two autoactive NLR proteins and by two chemical inducers, deepening the understanding of the control of the HR in plants. (via Semantic Scholar)
