Abstract excerpt
Plants recruit positive and negative regulators for fine tuning the balance between growth and development. Negative regulators of pathogen defense generally modulate defense hormone biosynthesis and signaling. Here, we report a mechanism for attenuation of the defense response in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), which is mediated by the polycomb-group repressor MEDEA (MEA). Our results showed that pathogen...
