PmeR, a TetR-like transcriptional regulator, is involved in both auxin signaling and virulence in the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae strain PtoDC3000.

Chia-Yun Lee, Maya Irvine, Barbara N. Kunkel

This paper identifies PmeR, a TetR-like transcriptional regulator in Pseudomonas syringae, as a key factor in auxin signaling and virulence, showing it is induced by auxin and regulates auxin-responsive genes.

Investigating the biosynthesis and roles of the auxin phenylacetic acid during Pseudomonas syringae-Arabidopsis thaliana pathogenesis

Chia-Yun Lee, Christopher P. Harper, Soon Goo Lee…·Barbara N. Kunkel

This study investigates the role of phenylacetic acid (PAA) produced by Pseudomonas syringae during infection of Arabidopsis thaliana, showing that PAA/IAA homeostasis affects plant-microbial interactions.
