TaWRKY24 Positively Regulates Wheat Resistance to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici via Modulation of Defense Signaling and Reactive Oxygen Species Accumulation.

Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), remains a major threat to global wheat production, which necessitates a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying resistance. WRKY transcription factors are pivotal regulators of plant immunity; however, their specific functions i...
