RAD51 (DNA repair gene) family genes play ubiquitous roles in immune response among species from plants to mammals. In this study, we cloned the <i>ZmRAD51A</i> gene (a member of <i>RAD51</i>) in maize and generated <i>ZmRAD51A</i> overexpression (<i>ZmRAD51A</i>-OE) in rice, tobacco, and <i>Arabidopsis</i>. The expression level of <i>ZmRAD51A</i> was remarkably induced by salicylic acid (SA) application in maize, and the transient overexpression of <i>ZmRAD51A</i> in tobacco induced a hypersens ...[more]
