Description
A large-scale time course expression profiling of wild type (Mla12/Rar1/Rom1) and mutants (mla12-M66, M82 (rar1-1), M100 (rar1-2) and rom1) of barley cultivar Sultan 5 was conducted to understand the molecular mechanisms of delayed powdery mildew resistance. Barley plants were inoculated with powdery mildew pathogen isolate 5874. First leaves of inoculated and non-inoculated plants were harvested at six time points after pathogen inoculation. The experiment was laid out in split-split-plot design with 180 experimental units (3 replications x 2 treatments (inoculated and non-inoculated) x 5 genotypes x 6 time points).
