Abstract

The vast majority of plant disease resistance (R) genes encode nucleotide binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins, which specifically determine the plant immune response and have been demonstrated to be targets of several microRNA (miRNA) families. The fungusFusarium oxysporumf. sp.lycopersici(FOL) causes vascular wilt disease in tomato worldwide. Here, we explored a possible role forFGR3in tomato defense against FOL.FRG3is a predicted NBS-LRR like gene that is targeted by slmiR482e-3p, a member of slmiR482 miRNA family. Northern blot data demonstrated that all seven members of the slmiR482 family were regulated in diverse ways after infection by FOL. The ability ofFRG3to be regulated by slmiR482e-3p was confirmed at the transcript level by co-expression studies inNicotiana benthamiana. A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) approach revealed thatFRG3confers resistance to the Motelle tomato cultivar. Taken together, our study has identified a novelRgene,FRG3, which is targeted by slmiR482e-3p at the transcript level, and is necessary for resistance to tomato wilt diseasein planta.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 February 2018.
All research outputs
#17,930,799
of 23,023,224 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#12,235
of 20,556 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#310,164
of 441,137 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#308
of 453 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,023,224 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 20,556 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 441,137 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 453 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
