From: TuRLK1, a leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinase, is indispensable for stripe rust resistance of YrU1 and confers broad resistance to multiple pathogens

Overexpression of TuRLK1 enhanced resistance to G. cichoracearum in Arabidopsis. a Four-week-old plants were inoculated with G. cichoracearum and photographs were taken at 7 dpi for the representative leaves. WT: Arabidopsis thaliana accession Col-0; pad4: Arabidopsis mutant, as negative control; TuRLK1-7#, TuRLK1-10#: two TuRLK1 transgenic lines of T2 generation. Bar = 8 mm. b The leaves shown in (a) were stained with Trypan blue to visualize fungal structures and plant cell death. Bar = 100 μm. c Conidiophore formation was assessed in WT, pad4, TuRLK1-7# and TuRLK1-10.# plants at 5 dpi. Error bars represent ± SE of values obtained from three independent experiments (n > 30). Statistically significant difference (Student’s t-test): **, P < 0.01. d Trypan blue staining of the leaves for quantitative analysis of conidiophore formation in (c) after inoculation with G. cichoracearum at 5 dpi. Bar = 100 μm
