Abstract excerpt
Using activation tagging in the Arabidopsis Col-0 rps2-101C background, we identified a mutant (FMO1-3D) that showed virtually no symptoms after inoculation with virulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 bacteria. The dominant, gain-of-function phenotype of the FMO1-3D mutant is due to over-expression of a class 3 flavin-containing mono-oxygenase (FMO). We recapitulated the FMO1-3D mutant phenotype in...
