RNA-seq-based analysis of the pathogen-induced defense transcriptome in Arabidopsis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Pathogen infection triggers transcriptional reprogramming in host plants, however we still know little about the dynamics of the pathogen-induced defense transcriptome. The goal of this study was to investigate the dynamic reprogramming of the defense transcriptome in response to Fusarium oxysporum infection in Arabidopsis using RNA-seq technology and to provide a comprehensive analysis of genes underlying the innate immune response against the fungal pathogen. Our results suggest that the Arabidopsis transcriptome is reprogrammed to co-ordinately express multiple positive and negative regulators following pathogen infection to modulate defense gene expression and disease resistance. Our study identified a number of novel genes responsive to pathogen infection and provided a rich source of pathogen responsive genes for further functional characterization.
