“…For example, H 2 O 2 -, SA-, elicitor-, heat-, and cold-induced cell death were suppressed in plant cells overexpressing AtBI-1 (Chae et al, 2003;Matsumura et al, 2003;KawaiYamada et al, 2004). Expression of plant BI-1 genes is rapidly up-regulated during wounding, pathogen attack (Sanchez et al, 2000), and senescence (Coupe et al, 2004), but down-regulated by elicitor treatment (Matsumura et al, 2003). These results suggest the involvement of BI-1 in the stress response and the HR in plants.…”
