Description

Arabidopsis MPK4 is involved in the control of antagonism between salicylic acid (SA) and ethylene (ET)/jasmonic acid (JA) pathways in the plant innate immune system as a repressor of the SA pathway, but an activator of the ET/JA pathway. Here we and use comparative microarray analysis of ctr1, ctr1/mpk4, mpk4 and wild type to show that MPK4 is required for only a narrow subset of ET regulated genes.

Publication Title

Arabidopsis systemic immunity uses conserved defense signaling pathways and is mediated by jasmonates.
