Figure 9. Model of LecRK-V.5 role in PAMP-induced stomatal closure.

Figure 9

This model is based on the information provided in this study and references cited in the Discussion. PAMPs are perceived by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in the guard cell. PAMPs perception is mechanistically linked to ABA-regulated stomatal closure via ROS production by NADPH oxidase. The virulence factor COR is secreted by Pst DC3000 to interfere with stomatal closure by reverting flg22-inhibition. LecRK-V.5 negatively regulates PAMP-mediated stomatal closure downstream of ABA but upstream of ROS production.
