Enhanced Resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus in the Arabidopsis thaliana ssi2 Mutant Is Mediated via an SA-Independent Mechanism
The Arabidopsis thaliana SSI2 gene encodes a plastid-localized stearoyl-ACP desaturase. The recessive ssi2 mutant allele confers constitutive accumulation of the pathogenesis-related-1 (PR-1) gene transcript and salicylic acid (SA), and enhanced resistance to bacterial and oomycete pathogens. In add...
