The Key Trichoderma-Induced Gene Encoding a DUF568 Domain-Containing Protein Mediates Defense Responses in Wheat
This study is the first to characterize the wheat DUF568 family and confirm that TaDUF568.18 (annotated as TaAIR12) acts as a positive regulator of Trichoderma-mediated wheat defense, providing a valuable gene resource for wheat disease-resistance breeding.
