Characterization of the expression of transcriptionally silent loci during the plant response against Pseudomonas syringae

Role of DNA methylation and demethylation in response to pathogen attack Southern blot Histochemical staining of GUS activity DNA hypomethylation upon Pto DC3000 infection Changes on AtSN1 methylation levels by Chop-PCR Generation of type III secretion system single mutant effectors from Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato. AtSN1 transcript accumulation is enhanced during effector-triggered immunity against P syringae Bacterial entry and development of disease in plant DNA methylation mutants Bacterial replication in DNA methylation mutant plants Concluding remarks
