Transcription Factor and Protein Regulatory Network of PmACRE1 in Pinus massoniana Response to Pine Wilt Nematode Infection.

ABSTRACT: Pine wilt disease, caused by Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, is a highly destructive and contagious forest affliction. Often termed the "cancer" of pine trees, it severely impacts the growth of Masson pine (Pinus massoniana). Previous studies have demonstrated that ectopic expression of the PmACRE1 gene from P. massoniana in Arabidopsis thaliana notably enhances resistance to pine wilt nematode infection. To further elucidate the transcriptional regulation and protein interactions of the PmACRE1 in P. massoniana in response to pine wilt nematode infection, we cloned a 1984 bp promoter fragment of the PmACRE1 gene, a transient expression vector was constructed by fusing this promoter with the reporter GFP gene, which successfully ac
