Abstract: With the requirement to breed more productive crop plants to feed a growing global population, compounded by increasingly wide-spread resistance to pesticides exhibited by pathogens, plant immunity is becoming an increasingly important area of research. Of the genes that contribute to disease resistance, the wall-associated receptor-like kinases (WAKs) are increasingly shown to play a major role, in addition to their contribution to plant growth and development or tolerance to abiotic stresses. Being transmemb… Show more

“…Stb6 controls a qualitative gene-for-gene resistance against Z. tritici isolates carrying the matching AvrStb6 and encodes for a wall-associated kinase (WAK) ( Kema et al, 2000 ; Brading et al, 2002 ; Saintenac et al, 2018 ). Many WAKs monitor plant cell wall integrity and induce a broad range of host defense responses, including the activation of MAPK cascades, the modulation of hormones signaling, and the modification of cell wall composition to prevent pathogen penetration ( Stephens et al, 2022 ). Stb16q , of particular interest as it confers qualitative broad-spectrum resistance against a large panel of Z. tritici isolates, encodes a cysteine-rich-receptor-like kinase (CRK) ( Saintenac et al, 2021 ).…”

“…It has been shown that WAKs function in signal transduction between the extracellular matrix and the cytoplasm and play pertinent roles in plant growth and development [26]. WAKs have recently gained attention as key factors in plant defense against pathogens [5]. Characterizing the WAK gene family will help identify many new candidate genes that may contribute to disease resistance.…”

“…Several independent studies have established that WAK family proteins constitute a central pillar of plant cells that monitor and interact with their extracellular environments at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Moreover, they are important in the defense against pathogens and contribute to plant immunity [5,13,15,18,[37][38][39]. Most of these immune-related WAK genes are highly induced upon infection by a pathogen.…”
