Transcription profiling of wheat interacting with incompatible and compatible yellow rust in a Yr1-containing genotype

ABSTRACT: Transcriptional changes were monitored in the wheat cultivar Avocet*6/Yr1 following inoculation with avirulent and virulent wheat yellow rust (Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici) isolates using the Affymetrix wheat genome array GeneChip®. Seedlings of Avocet*6/Yr1 were grown to growth stage 12-13 (Zadoks et al., 1974) before inoculating with either the P.s. f.sp. tritici isolate 169E136 (Yr1-virulent) or 232E137 (Yr1-avirulent) or with talc for the Mock inoculation (Boyd and Minchin 2001). Plants were grown under a 16/8 hour photoperiod cycle, supplemented with sodium lighting (240 ?mol m-2 s-1) at day/night temperatures of 20°C/15°C and a relative humidity of 60%, both before and after inoculation, in a spore-free, containment level 2 greenhouse. Leaf samples from six seedlings were co
