Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Me.S076800.1
• Gene Symbol: MeNR2
• Gene Name: Nitrate reductase 2
• Genome:
• Species: Manihot esculenta

Functional Descriptions:

• Investigated the role of MeCatalase1 and MeRAV5-MeNR1/2 module in cassava defence response.
• MeNRs positively regulates cassava disease resistance against CBB through modulation of nitric oxide (NO) and extensive transcriptional reprogramming especially in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling.
• MeNRs positively regulate cassava disease resistance to Xam through NO.
• This study highlights the precise coordination of NR activity and CAT activity by MeRAV5 through directly activating MeNRs and interacting with MeCAT1 in plant immunity.
