From: Genome-wide characterization of the wall-associated kinase-like (WAKL) family in sesame (Sesamum indicum) identifies a SiWAKL6 gene involved in resistance to Macrophomina Phaseolina

SiWAKL6 enhanced transgenic A. thaliana resistance to M. phaseolina. (A) Phenotypes of WT and transgenic A. thaliana plants at 14 days after inoculation by M. phaseolina. (B) Transgenic plants were confirmed by PCR. “-” represents water, while “+” represents recombinant plasmid. (C) Disease index of WT and transgenic A. thaliana plants at 14 days after inoculation by M. phaseolina. (D) Relative biomass of M. phaseolina (MpSyk) and A. thaliana (AtSK11) DNA in WT and transgenic A. thaliana plants at 14 days after inoculation by M. phaseolina. (E) Relative expression of AtNPR1, AtPR1 and AtPR5 genes in the SA pathway at 12 h postinoculation by M. phaseolina, with water treatment as a mock. (F) Relative expression of AtVSP2 and AtPDF1.2 genes in the JA pathway at 12 h postinoculation by M. phaseolina, with water treatment as a mock
