Investigation of the Roles of Phosphatidylinositol 4-Phosphate 5-Kinases 7,9 and Wall-Associated Kinases 1-3 in Responses to Indole-3-Carbinol and Biotic Stress in Arabidopsis Thaliana.

ABSTRACT: Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a hydrolysis product of indole-3-methylglucosinolate, is toxic to herbivorous insects and pathogens. In mammals, I3C is extensively studied for its properties in cancer prevention and treatment. Produced in Brassicaceae, I3C reversibly inhibits root elongation in a concentration-dependent manner. This inhibition is partially explained by the antagonistic action of I3C on auxin signaling through TIR1. To further elucidate the mode of action of I3C in plants, we have employed a forward-genetic amiRNA screen that circumvents functional redundancy. We identified and characterized two amiRNA lines with impaired I3C response. The first line, ICT2, targets the phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase family (PIP5K), exhibiting tolerance to I3C, while the second li
