Master transcription factors of plant immunity are targeted by a Ralstonia solanacearum effector

We found the Type III effector protein RipAB could suppress multiple plant immune responses and is important for the virulence of bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis was performed with 10-day-old seedlings of WT, OERipAB transgenic Arabidopsis plants ( hereinafter referred to OERipAB ) with or without 500 µM INA treatment for 1 h. Three independent repeats were performed for RNA-seq analysis.
