Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Calcium-Induced Defense Response in Barley Against Magnaporthe oryzae

In this study, we found that exogenous 50 mM calcium chloride treatment reduced the number of barley leaf lesions per plant by 39%. To investigate the molecular basis for this increased resistance, we used Magnaporthe oryzae spores to infect barley and collected the leaves for analysis. Four groups were set up: control...
