e0“To search for genes involved in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) defense response to the infection of stripe rust pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), we identified and cloned a new wheat gene similar to the genes in the Abc1-like gene family.”
e1“Characterization of TaAbc1 expression revealed that gene expression was tissue-specific and could be up-regulated by biotic agents (e.g., stripe rust pathogen) and/or by an abiotic stress like wounding.”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect TaAbc1 expression in wheat could be up-regulated by stripe rust pathogen and by wounding.
- Association High-fold induction of TaAbc1 was associated with hypersensitive response triggered by avirulent stripe rust pathotypes.
- Mechanism TaAbc1 is suggested to be a rust-pathotype specific HR-mediator in wheat.
- Intervention effect Down-regulating TaAbc1 reduced HR in Suwon11 against CYR23.
- Intervention effect Down-regulating TaAbc1 did not change the overall resistance level of Suwon11 to CYR23.
- Mechanism Overall host resistance of wheat is suggested to be not HR-dependent.
- Observation TaAbc1 encodes a 717-amino acid, 80.35 kD protein.
- Observation The TaAbc1 protein has two conserved domains, two trans-membrane domains and a 36-amino acid chloroplast targeting presequence.
