1. Alterations in host
transcriptional activity to
rust pathogens

3. Plant-Pathogen Interactions
§ Plants are exposed to a wide variety of potential
pathogens
§ Relatively few infect and elicit disease symptoms
§ Successful colonization of a host requires:
§ Surpassing passive defenses
§ Suppressing or delaying resistance responses
§ Obtaining nutrients from the host
4. Disease
• Affected
host
genes
are
dubbed
suscep4bility
genes
(S-‐genes)
• They
create
a
more
conducive
environment

the
pathogen

Effector Triggered Susceptibility
5. S-genes
§ Why should we find them?
§ Mutated S-genes can confer resistance,
sometimes separate from standard pathways
§ pmr6 mutant in Arabidopsis thaliana
§ Mutant S-gene derived resistance can be non-
race-specific, durable, and involved conserved
interactions
§ mlo mutants in Hordeum vulgare
pmr6 in A. thaliana
Vogel et al. 2002
§ Are there conserved pathways which are altered
during rust infection?
§ Are S-genes present we can manipulate/mutate for
resistance?
§ Specifically, we want to identify putative S-genes,
mutate and assess them for resistant/susceptible
phenotypes.
6. Plant and Pathogen Materials
§ Utilized three compatible host-rust systems
§ Barley, soybean, and maize
§ Shifts focus from host specific to broad interactions
12. Barley
§ Differential expression follows a biphasic pattern
§ No differential expression at 6 hpi
§ Significantly more up-regulation

20. Conclusion
§ Conserved patterns of differential gene expression are being
identified
§ Candidate S-genes also identified
§ Their involvement in the infection process and ability to alter
the host-rust interaction is yet to be determined
