The Transcriptional Response of Hybrid Poplar (Populus trichocarpa x P. deltoids) to Infection by Melampsora medusae Leaf Rust Involves Induction of Flavonoid Pathway Genes Leading to the Accumulation of Proanthocyanidins
The transcriptional response of hybrid poplar (Populus trichocarpa × P. deltoids) to poplar leaf rust (Melampsora medusae) infection was studied using the Populus 15.5K cDNA microarray. Pronounced changes in the transcriptome were observed, with approximately 20% of genes on the array showing either...
