Summary: | OsBAK1
gene belongs to a receptor like kinase gene family in rice and shares a highly conserved gene structure and sequence homology with
Arabidopsis thaliana BAK1
gene. To investigate the role of
OsBAK1
in rice immunity, the full-length cDNA of
OsBAK1
was isolated by RT-PCR and the transgenic rice lines (over expression and RNA-interference lines) were generated using
Agrobacterium
-mediated transformation. The expression level of
OsBAK1
was determined by q-PCR in overexpression and RNAi transgenic rice lines. Based on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q-PCR) results, two overexpression lines and two RNAi lines were evaluated in bioassays for resistance to
Xanthomonas oryzae
pv.
oryzae
PXO99, the causal agent of rice bacterial blight disease. Pathogenicity bioassays showed overexpression
OsBAK1
lines exhibited resistance to blight disease whereas
OsBAK1
RNAi lines promoted susceptibility. Besides, OsBAK1 can complement the function of AtBAK1 in Arabidopsis
bak1
protoplast, activating
FRK1
expression, a marker gene in PTI signaling pathway, after treatment by flg22. Furthermore, the transcriptional level of
OsBAK1
was induced significantly in rice by defense signaling molecules such as salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, and PXO99 inoculation. Our results illustrated
OsBAK1
positively regulates plant defense against rice bacterium pathogen
Xanthomonas oryzae
pv.
oryzae
PXO99. |
