Abstract

Many subunits of the Mediator transcriptional co-activator complex are multifunctional proteins that regulate plant immunity in Arabidopsis. Cotton cyclin-dependent kinase E (GhCDKE), which is a subunit of the cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) Mediator complex, has been annotated, but the biological functions of this gene associated with regulating disease resistance have not been characterized. Here, we cloned GhCDKE from cotton and confirmed that GhCDKE belonged to the E-type CDK family in the phylogenetic tree, and, as in other eukaryotes, we found that GhCDKE interacted with C-type cyclin (GhCycC) by yeast two-hybrid and luciferase complementation imaging assays. Expression of GhCDKE in cotton was induced by Verticillium dahliae infection and MeJA treatment, and silencing of GhCDKE expression in cotton led to enhanced susceptibility to V. dahliae, while overexpression of GhCDKE in Arabidopsis thaliana enhanced resistance to this pathogen. Transgenic expression assay demonstrated that the transcriptional activity of GhPDF1.2pro:LUC in GhCDKE-silenced cotton was dramatically inhibited. In addition, the expression of jasmonic acid (JA)-regulated pathogen-responsive genes was dramatically upregulated in GhCDKE-overexpressed plants after inoculation with V. dahliae, and the roots of GhCDKE-overexpressed A. thaliana were more susceptible to JA treatment. These results indicated that GhCDKE regulates resistance against V. dahliae and that this resistance is mediated by JA response pathway.

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 18 July 2018.
All research outputs
#15,535,385
of 23,088,369 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Plant Science
#11,057
of 20,698 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#210,224
of 330,395 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Plant Science
#278
of 464 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,088,369 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 20,698 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% 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 330,395 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 464 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
