Some given facts regarding effector molecules such as;

a) HC-toxin-induced plasma membrane hyperpolarization in guard cells causes massive K+ uptake and permanent stomatal opening

b) Xanthomonas, are proteins that target the plant cell nucleus and causes change in gene expression, called transcription activator-like (TAL) effectors bind to the host plant DNA and activate the expression of genes

c) Fusicoccin, a cyclic peptide, acts on the enzyme histone deacetylase in the nucleus, and may have a compromising effect on the expression of genes involved in defense

d) Gibberellins accelerate growth, resulting in bigger plants when compared with uninfested plants. The gibberellins produced by the fungi are identical to those produced endogenously by the plant

Which of the following combination is incorrect?

#SCPH01 Biochemistry

WRKY plant-specific group of transcription factors that play important role in many plant metabolic and developmental processes such as;
a) It contain a 30 amino acid region named for the conserved amino acid sequence WRKYGQK in its N-terminal domain
b) It is an important regulators of plant–pathogen interactions as well as senescence
c) WRKY53 is involved in the regulation of dark-induced leaf senescence
d) In Arabidopsis, leaf senescence is delayed in knockout mutants of the WRKY53 gene
e) WRKY53 also binds to the promoter of the WRKY53 gene, inhibiting its own expression in a negative feedback loop
Which of the following given prediction about WRKY transcription factor is correct?
