Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation TaCRK3 was identified as a cysteine-rich receptor-like kinase gene.
- Intervention effect R. cerealis significantly elevated TaCRK3 transcript abundance.
- Intervention effect Exogenous ethylene significantly elevated TaCRK3 transcripts.
- Intervention effect TaCRK3 silencing significantly compromised resistance to R. cerealis.
- Observation TaCRK3 protein localized at the wheat plasma membrane.
- Observation Heterologously expressed TaCRK3 protein inhibited R. cerealis mycelial growth.
- Observation A TaCRK3 peptide containing DUF26 domains inhibited fungal growth.
- Mechanism Authors infer TaCRK3 mediates resistance through antifungal activity and ethylene-pathway defense gene expression.
- Mechanism Authors infer DUF26 domains are required for TaCRK3 antifungal activity.
- Recommendation TaCRK3 is proposed as a resistance-breeding gene.
