Abstract excerpt
Can plants live without defenses? Mutant analysis in Arabidopsis thaliana has identified numerous regulators of biotic, abiotic, and hormone-based defenses, but the redundancy among separate defense pathways remains unexplored. We constructed an Arabidopsis mutant, defenseless, lacking six canonical defense pathways using abi1-1 (abscisic acid), coi1 (jasmonic acid), sid2 (salicylic acid), ein2 (ethylene), eds1...
