Abstract excerpt
One of the earliest signal transduction events that trigger the hypersensitive response (HR) of plants against pathogen attack is thought to be an alteration of proton flux across the plasma membrane (PM). However, no direct genetic evidence for the involvement of PM-localised proton channels or pumps in the induction of this response has been reported. We previously showed that expression of the bacterial proton...
