Abstract
  • As part of an HHMI funded research project, I showed that overexpression (OE) of actin (ACT2) in Arabidopsis thaliana alters the expression of genes involved in plant immunity. Others have previously shown that knockout (KO) mutants of actin depolymerizing factor 4 are affected in the same gene as ACT2-OE. For this project I will characterize Arabidopsis thaliana lines generated by genetically crossing the ACT2-OE and the ADF4-KO lines. I will genotype the crosses and characterize them for plant immunity and defense gene expression.
