Abstract:The roles of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in plant-fungal pathogenic interactions are less understood in crops. Here, microscopic, phenotyping, proteomic and biochemical analyses revealed that independent TALEN-based knockout lines of Hordeum vulgare MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE 3 (HvMPK3 KO) were resistant against Fusarium graminearum infection. When co-cultured with roots of the HvMPK3 KO lines, F. graminearum hyphae were excluded to the extracellular space, the growth pattern of hyphae was … Show more
