The RING-Type E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Gene GhDIRP1 Negatively Regulates Verticillium dahliae Resistance in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum).

ABSTRACT: Cotton is one of the world's most important economic crops. Verticillium wilt is a devastating cotton disease caused by Verticillium dahliae, significantly impacting cotton yield and quality. E3 ubiquitin ligases are essential components of the ubiquitin-mediated 26S proteasome system, responsible for recognizing ubiquitinated target proteins and promoting their degradation, which play a crucial regulatory role in plant immune responses. In this study, on the basis of the confirmation of differential expression of GhDIRP1, a RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligase encoding gene, in two cotton varieties resistant (Zhongzhimian 2) or susceptible (Jimian 11) to V. dahliae, we demonstrated that GhDIRP1 is a negative regulator of V. dahliae resistance because silencing
