Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation TaHIR2 was predicted to encode a 284-amino acid protein of 31.05 kD and pI 5.18.
- Observation TaHIR2 protein sequence contained an SPFH domain and prohibitin homologue.
- Observation TaHIR2 was highly homologous to HvHIR2.
- Observation TaHIR2 fusion protein was located in onion epidermal cells in a transient expression assay.
- Observation TaHIR2 transcripts accumulated significantly in adult wheat leaves, peaking 18 h after stripe rust inoculation.
- Observation TaHIR2 was slightly up-regulated in the compatible reaction at the seedling stage.
- Mechanism The authors suggest TaHIR2 may play a role in wheat defense against stripe rust.
