AI Article Synopsis

  • Researchers cloned two wheat genes, Lrk10 and Cre3, that help resist wheat pathogens and searched for similar sequences in the NCBI database.
  • They found 23 clones related to the Cre3 gene and 50 clones related to the Lrk10 gene, both featuring important protein domains.
  • Several conserved nucleotide sequences were identified, with two being identical among many clones related to Lrk10 and two among those related to Cre3.

Article Abstract

Sequences of two recently cloned genes playing a role in resistance against wheat pathogens (receptor-like kinase Lrk10 and Cre3 genes) were used to search for similarity of cereal clones included in the NCBI database. We found 23 clones with similarity to the Cre3 gene with predicted NBS and LRR domains, and 50 clones with serine/threonine kinase function and similarity to the new receptor-like kinase gene Lrk10 from wheat. In those two groups of clones some conservative nucleotide sequences were identified. Two sequences are identical between the majority of resistance gene candidate clones with a high similarity to Lrk10, and two sequences are identical between the majority of resistance gene candidate clones with similarity to the Cre3 gene.

Aluminium (Al)-induced programmed cell death (PCD) is thought to be a main cause of Al phytotoxicity. However, the underlying mechanism by which Al induces PCD in plants is unclear. In this study, we characterized the function of AhASRK1 (Aluminum Sensitive Receptor-like protein Kinase1), an Al-induced LRR-type receptor-like kinase gene.

Methyl jasmonate is a plant signaling molecule involved in a wide range of functions, including stress responses. This study investigates the relative differential expression of microRNAs and their target genes in response to methyl jasmonate treatment of Scots pine needles. A combined strategy of high-throughput sequencing and in silico prediction of potential target genes was implemented.

Plant lectin receptor-like kinases (LecRLKs) are plant membrane protein receptor kinases. Lectin-like receptor kinases play a crucial role in regulating plant growth, development, and responses to environmental stimuli. It can rapidly respond to both biotic and abiotic stresses while mediating mechanisms of plant immune responses.

Most land plants form symbioses with microbes to acquire nutrients but also must restrict infection by pathogens. Here, we show that a single pair of lysin-motif-containing receptor-like kinases, MpaLYR and MpaCERK1, mediates both immunity and symbiosis in the liverwort Marchantia paleacea. MpaLYR has a higher affinity for long-chain (CO7) versus short-chain chitin oligomers (CO4).

Leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RLKs) have emerged as key regulators of herbivory perception and subsequent defense initiation. While their functions in grass plants have been gradually elucidated, the roles of herbivory-related LRR-RLKs in woody plants remain largely unknown. In this study, we mined the genomic and transcriptomic data of tea plants () and identified a total of 307 CsLRR-RLK members.
