Proteomic Analysis of a Compatible Interaction between Sorghum Downy Mildew Pathogen (Peronosclerospora sorghi) and Maize (Zea mays L.)

Abstract

Maize is the third most important crop worldwide after rice and wheat (Hoisington and Melchinger 2004). It is affected by several pests and diseases. Among the diseases, sorghum downy mildew (SDM), caused by Peronosclerospora sorghi [(Weston and

Molecular mapping of two recessive genes controlling resistance to bacterial leaf pustule disease in soybean (Glycine max)

“…Most of these genes were involved in transport, carbohydrate metabolism, catalytic activities, transcription and replication processes (Table S1). However, some of these genes have been reported to be involved in biotic stress resistance (Figure 4c) such as MLO‐like protein 1 (Jørgensen, 1992); LHP 1 (Ramirez‐Prado et al, 2019); histone acetyl transferase (Song Song et al, 2022); replication factor C (Xia et al, 2009); FAR1 (Wang et al, 2016), DEAD box RNA helicase 50 (Jadhav et al, 2018); peptidyl‐prolyl cis‐trans isomerase (Mokryakova et al, 2014); and glycosyl hydrolase family 10 (Kim et al, 2021). MLO is a transmembrane protein and provides resistance by effective arrest of fungal pathogen at early stages of prepenetration by forming enlarged cell wall apposition at the site of fungal penetration followed by callose deposition and generation of anti‐oxidants (Hückelhoven et al, 2000; Piffanelli et al, 2002).…”
