Abstract excerpt
Arabidopsis genome contains 20 genes encoding mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs, or MPKs), and ten genes encoding MAPK kinases (MAPKKs, or MKKs), the upstream kinases that activate MAPKs in the signaling cascades. They play critical roles in many different biological processes ranging from growth/development to response to environmental stimuli and pathogen invasion. T-DNA knockout lines are not currently...
