Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS2D02G207400
• Gene Symbol: TaCPK7-D
• Gene Name: cultivar CI 12633 calcium-dependent protein kinase7-D
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• The wheat calcium-dependent protein kinase TaCPK7-D positively regulates host resistance to sharp eyespot disease.
• TaCPK7-D, encoding a subgroup III member of the calcium-dependent protein kinase (CPK) family, was identified from the sharp eyespot-resistant wheat line CI12633 through comparative transcriptomic analysis.
• Subsequently, the defence role of TaCPK7-D against R. cerealis infection was studied by the generation and characterization of TaCPK7-D-silenced and TaCPK7-D-overexpressing wheat plants.
• TaCPK7-D-overexpressing wheat lines showed increased resistance to sharp eyespot compared with untransformed recipient wheat Yangmai 16.
• These results suggest that TaCPK7-D positively regulates the wheat resistance response to R. cerealis infection through the modulation of the expression of these defence-associated genes, and that TaCPK7-D is a candidate to improve sharp eyespot resistance in wheat.
