Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS1D02G358400
• Gene Symbol: TaCBL4
• Gene Name: calcineurin B-like protein 4
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• The calcium sensor TaCBL4 and its interacting protein TaCIPK5 are required for wheat resistance to stripe rust fungus.
• Silencing of TaCBL4 resulted in enhanced susceptibility to avirulent Pst infection.
• In addition, screening determined that TaCIPK5 physically interacted with TaCBL4 in planta and positively contributed to wheat resistance to Pst.
• Together these findings demonstrate that the TaCBL4–TaCIPK5 complex positively modulates wheat resistance in a ROS-dependent manner, and provide new insights into the roles of CBL–CIPK in wheat.
