Abstract

Plant resistance proteins of the class of nucleotide‐binding and leucine‐rich repeat domain proteins ( NB ‐ LRR s) are immune sensors which recognize pathogen‐derived molecules termed avirulence ( AVR ) proteins. We show that RGA 4 and RGA 5, two NB ‐ LRR s from rice, interact functionally and physically to mediate resistance to the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae and accomplish different functions in AVR recognition. RGA 4 triggers an AVR ‐independent cell death that is repressed in the presence of RGA 5 in both rice protoplasts and Nicotiana benthamiana . Upon recognition of the pathogen effector AVR ‐Pia by direct binding to RGA 5, repression is relieved and cell death occurs. RGA 4 and RGA 5 form homo‐ and hetero‐complexes and interact through their coiled‐coil domains. Localization studies in rice protoplast suggest that RGA 4 and RGA 5 localize to the cytosol. Upon recognition of AVR ‐Pia, neither RGA 4 nor RGA 5 is re‐localized to the nucleus. These results establish a model for the interaction of hetero‐pairs of NB ‐ LRR s in plants: RGA 4 mediates cell death activation, while RGA 5 acts as a repressor of RGA 4 and as an AVR receptor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
