  • Title: A cDNA clone for a pathogenesis-related protein 1 from barley.
    Author: Muradov A, Petrasovits L, Davidson A, Scott KJ.
    Journal: Plant Mol Biol; 1993 Oct; 23(2):439-42. PubMed ID: 8219079.
    Abstract:
    A barley cDNA clone (PRb-1) corresponding to an mRNA differentially induced in resistant compared to susceptible barley cultivars by powdery mildew infection was isolated and characterised. The deduced amino acid sequence revealed 24 amino acids comprising the signal peptide and 140 amino acids of the mature peptide (15 kDa). This showed close homology to PR-1-like proteins, which have been isolated from maize, tobacco, tomato and Arabidopsis thaliana. Northern blot analysis showed accumulation of the corresponding mRNA 12 h after inoculation of resistant barley cultivars with Erysiphe graminis. Increased expression of the PRb-1 gene was also observed in resistant compared with near-isogenic susceptible barley plants following treatment with ethylene, salicylic acid, methyl jasmonate and 2,6-dichloro-isonicotinic acid.
