The Arabidopsis Lectin Receptor Kinase LecRK-V.5 Represses Stomatal Immunity Induced by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000

Marie Desclos-Theveniau; Dominique Arnaud; Ting-Yu Huang dkk.

PLoS Pathogens, Vol. 8 No. 2 · 2012 · Inggris · PLOS Scopus

Stomata play an important role in plant innate immunity by limiting pathogen entry into leaves but molecular mechanisms regulating stomatal closure upon pathogen perception are not well understood. Here we show that the Arabidopsis thaliana L-type lectin receptor kinase-V.5 (LecRK-V.5) negatively…
