PRR2, a pseudo-response regulator, promotes salicylic acid and camalexin accumulation during plant immunity

Abstract Calcium signalling mediated by Calmodulin (CaM) and calmodulin-like (CML) proteins is critical to plant immunity. CaM and CML regulate a wide range of target proteins and cellular responses. While many CaM-binding proteins have been identified, few have been characterized for their specific...

PRR2, a pseudo-response regulator, promotes salicylic acid and camalexin accumulation during plant immunity
