Functional Descriptions:
- Plants overexpressing CsWRKY25 were more resistant to CBC and showed higher expression of the respiratory burst oxidase homolog (RBOH) CsRBOH2, in addition to exhibiting increased RBOH activity.
- Transient overexpression assays in citrus confirmed that CsWRKY25 and CsRBOH2 participated in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) bursts, which were able to restore the ROS degradation caused by CsAP2-09 knockdown.
- CsRBOH2 knockdown had been reported previously to reduce the CBC resistance, while demonstrated in this study, CsRBOH2 transient overexpression can enhance the CBC resistance.
- Our results outline a pathway through which CsAP2-09-CsWRKY25 transcriptionally reprograms CsRBOH2-mediated ROS homeostasis in a manner conducive to CBC resistance.
- The CsAP2-09-CsWRKY25-CsRBOH2 cascade confers resistance against citrus bacterial canker by regulating ROS homeostasis.
