Figure 1.

Wheat Plants Transformed with NP:WKS1.1 and NP:WKS1.2 and Inoculated with Pst Race PST-08/21.

(A) Schematic representation of WKS1.1 and WKS1.2 genes. Introns are represented by black lines and exons by boxes: black = kinase domain, white = inter domain, and gray = START domain.

(B) to (G) Stripe rust infection severity in plants inoculated with PST-08/21 15 dpi.

(B) Susceptible control Glasgow.

(C) Susceptible control UC1041.

(D) Resistant control UC1041+WKS1.

(E) Glasgow transformed with NP:WKS1.2. NP, native promoter.

(F) and (G) Two independent transformation events with NP:WKS1.1.
