PR1 — Oryza sativa Indica Group

Summary

BGIOSGA025080, designated OiPR1 on indica rice chromosome 7, encodes a protein containing a CAP domain and a CRISP-related region, and is annotated with cytokine activity and protein binding. The gene is associated with defense responses, including activation of immune response, response to herbivore, wounding, bacteria, and jasmonic acid, ethylene, and salicylic acid signaling. It is linked to systemic acquired resistance, resistance to pathogens such as Rhizoctonia solani and root knot nematode, and to traits including salt tolerance, cadmium response, and lateral root development. The encoded protein localizes to the extracellular region, plant-type cell wall, vacuole, and secretory vesicle. Related genes in other species are associated with salicylic acid-mediated defense, systemic immunity, and resistance to Botrytis cinerea and Cucumber mosaic virus.
