converted by a three-component TPADO to 1,6-dihydroxycyclohexa-2,4-diene-dicarboxylate (DCD). The DCD is acted upon by TphB (1,2-dihydroxy-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,4-dicarboxylate dehydrogenase) and converted to protocatechuate (PCA), which is then funnelled into the central metabolic pathways....
In healthy plants, the HEN1 plays a role in miRNA/miRNA* and siRNA duplexes methylation for RNA silencing (Figure 10, panel i). In the TuGR-infected plants, the HC-ProR interacts and inhibits the HEN1, resulting in lesser sRNA duplexes methylation (Figure 10, panel ii). In contrast,...
