Genetic analysis of acd6-1 reveals complex defense networks and leads to identification of novel defense genes in Arabidopsis.

Abstract excerpt

Pathogen infection leads to the activation of defense signaling networks in plants. To study these networks and the relationships between their components, we introduced various defense mutations into acd6-1, a constitutive gain-of-function Arabidopsis mutant that is highly disease resistant. acd6-1 plants show spontaneous cell death, reduced stature, and accumulate high levels of camalexin (an anti-fungal...
