Abstract:

Fungal diseases cause serious yield losses of wheat worldwide. Up to date, numerous genes involved in the wheat-pathogen response have been identified. These include pathogenesis related (PR) genes and antifungal hydrolases such as glucanase and chitinase genes. Recently, there has been increasing number of studies providing evidence of the potential involvement of 1,3-β-glucanase in defense against fungal infection. In this study we identified a cDNA encoding a 1,3-β-glucanase, designated TaGlc2, from wheat cDNA library. The deduced peptide sequence of TaGlc2 is similar to a glycoside hydrolase family 17. Using real time PCR, the expression pattern of TaGlc2 in wheat seedlings inoculated with powdery mildew pathogen (Erysiphe graminis) was determined. The results showed that TaGlc2 is inducible in response to fungal infection. The 5' genomic region of TaGlc2 was isolated and it contains some cis-elements which are reported to be involved in pathogenesis response.
