Gene Details:

• Gene ID:
• Gene Symbol: TaCRK2
• Gene Name: cysteine-rich receptor-like kinase 2
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• A novel cysteine-rich receptor-like kinase gene, TaCRK2, contributes to leaf rust resistance in wheat.
• Knockdown of TaCRK2 by virus-induced gene silencing and RNAi leads to a dramatic increase in HR area and the number of haustorial mother cells at the single infection site.
• TaCRK2 overexpression in Nicotiana benthamiana induced strong HR-like cell death.
• This result indicates that the expression of TaCRK2 is regulated by calcium signals in the interaction between Tc Lr26 and P. triticina race 260.
• TaCRK2 plays an important role in the resistance to P. triticina infection and has a positive regulation effect on the HR cell death process induced by P. triticina.
