Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Mature Nicotiana benthamiana strongly resisted P. infestans.
- Mechanism NbCRT3a encodes an ER quality-control chaperone for glycoprotein maturation.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing caused no detectable growth defects.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing significantly compromised resistance to P. infestans.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing suppressed INF1-induced reactive oxygen species production.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing suppressed INF1-induced phytoalexin accumulation.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing reduced NbEAS expression.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing did not affect NbPR-1a expression.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing suppressed INF1-induced ethylene production.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing impaired resistance reactions induced by P. infestans wall components.
- Intervention effect NbCRT3a silencing did not affect cell death induced by active NbMEK2(DD).
- Mechanism NbCRT3a was inferred to be necessary to initiate resistance to P. infestans elicitors.
