Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS2D02G097500
• Gene Symbol: TaCaM3-2D
• Gene Name: calmodulin
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• Silencing TaCaM3 with virus-induced gene silencing increased fungal infection areas and sporulation and reduced wheat resistance to the Pst avirulent race CYR23.
• Silencing TaCaM3 decreased the calcium (Ca2+) influx induced by chitin, but silencing TaBln1 increased the Ca2+ influx in vivo using a noninvasive micro-test technique.
• The accumulation of TaCaM3 transcripts could be induced by treatment with chitin but not flg22.
• A noninvasive micro-test technique and chitin-treatment experiments showed that transient silencing of TaCaM3 led to a decrease in Ca2+ influx in wheat mesophyll cells; however, silencing TaBln1 led to a substantial increase in Ca2+ influx.
• TaCam3 might be the target for TaBln1 in the wheat response to Pst infection. Our results provide insights that may lead to improved understanding of the roles of susceptibility factors in plant resistance.
