New function of Hypoxia-responsive unknown protein in enhanced resistance to biotic stress.

ABSTRACT: Submergence and waterlogging lead to significant reductions in crop productivity and trigger dramatic changes in gene expression of plant biotic/abiotic stress response. Several of the host factors are involved in low-oxygen stress that is induced by endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Hypoxia-response unknown protein (HUP) has been found as a host factor of hypoxia screening but HUPs function largely is unknown. In this study, we found the Arabidopsis HUP26 gene which was conserved in different plant species and responded to various oxidative stress. HUP26 promoter analysis showed GUS activity in root and leaf tissues was significantly responsive to oxidative stress. HUP26-GFP is predominantly located in the cytoplasmic region. HUP2
