Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation TaMYC4-1B was upregulated only in susceptible wheat lines in the presence of rust pathogens.
- Intervention effect Down-regulation of TaMYC4-1B by BSMV-VIGS enhanced stem rust resistance of the susceptible wheat cultivar Chinese Spring.
- Intervention effect Knockout of TaMYC4-1BL in Cadenza gave new resistance to races of stem, leaf and stripe rust pathogens.
- Observation New wheat germplasm was developed by modifying the TaMYC4 transcription factor.
