Transcriptomic analysis of soybean immune responses induced by the extracellular cellulase EngXCA of the pustule pathogen.
The extracellular cellulase EngXCA secreted by the soybean pustule pathogen degrades the soybean cell wall, releasing damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and subsequently inducing soybean immune responses. To elucidate the genome-wide regulatory role of EngXCA in the transcription of soybean immune-related genes, transcriptome analysis was performed in this study.
