LYR3 encodes a lysin motif-receptor-like kinase (LysM-RLK) that consists of an extracellular ligand-binding domain composed of three LysM domains, a single transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinase domain. A reverse genetic approach was undertaken to study the role of this gene in the pathosystem Medicago truncatula – Aphanomyces euteiches (Ae). Results suggest that lyr3-1 and lyr3-2 mutants are more susceptible to the root pathogen Aphanomyces euteiches than the A17 wild type (WT) line. In this study, we want to compare the early plant responses, 3 days post inoculation (dpi), between WT and the lyr3-1 and lyr3-2 mutants, in order to identify LYR3-dependent gene networks during infection. medicago truncatula (a17) mutant (lyr3_1) - harvest date: 14-05-12
Data processing
The data were normalized with the gcrma algorithm (Irizarry et al., 2003), available in the Bioconductor package (Gentleman and Carey, 2002).
