摘要：

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) exhibits local acquired resistance to the powdery mildew pathogen Erysiphe graminis f. sp. tritici. The resistant state can be induced by a preinoculation with the nonhost pathogen E. g. f. sp. hordei, the barley powdery mildew, And is accompanied by the activation of putative defense genes. Here, we report the sequence of a pathogen-induced gene, WIR1a, and a corresponding cDNA, WIR1, that encode novel defense-related proteins of 88 and 85 amino acids, respectively. Analysis of the primary structure of these proteins predicts them to be integral membrane proteins with extracytoplasmic C-terminal domains rich in proline and glycine, through which the proteins possibly interact with the cell wall.
