Abstract excerpt
The immune system of plants consists of two main arms, pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP)-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI). The multiple effectors that trigger ETI are translocated into plant cells by the type III secretion system (T3SS) of pathogenic bacteria. The rice-avirulent N1141 strain of Acidovorax avenae causes ETI in rice, including hypersensitive response (HR)...
