Os01g0872800

The rice Os01g0872800 was reported as OsPdk1 in 2010 by researchers from the Japan.

Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

• Os01g0872800 <=> OsPdk1

Function

• OsPdk1 positively regulates basal disease resistance through the OsOxi1–OsPti1a phosphorylation cascade in rice.
• The phosphorylation status of OsPdk1 in response to chitin elicitor. Like OsOxi1, OsPdk1 is rapidly phosphorylated in response to chitin elicitor, suggesting that OsPdk1 participates in signal transduction through pathogen recognition.

Mutant

• The overexpression of OsPdk1 enhanced basal resistance against a blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, and a bacterial pathogen, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo).
