Expression data from 2-week-old Arabidopsis untreated seedlings grown under a short day condition

The Arabidopsis thaliana defense regulator EDM2 was previously shown to be specifically required for disease resistance to the pathogenic oomycete Hyaloperonospora parasitica aradidopsis mediated by the R protein RPP7. We found EDM2 to have a promoting effect on several distinct developmental processes, such as leaf pavement cell development, vegetative phase change or the floral transition. We further identified the atypical protein kinase WNK8 to physically interact with EDM2 in nuclei.
