| Abstract | The self-incompatibility (SI) system of the Brassicaceae is based on allele-specific interactions among haplotypes of the S locus. In all tested self-incompatible Brassicaceae, the S haplotype encompasses two linked genes, one encoding the S-locus receptor kinase (SRK), a transmembrane kinase displayed at the surface of stigma epidermal cells, and the other encoding its ligand, the S-locus cysteine-rich (SCR) protein, which is localized in the pollen coat. Transfer of the two genes to self-fertile Arabidopsis thaliana allowed the establishment of robust SI in several accessions, indicating that the signaling cascade triggered by this receptor-ligand interaction and the resulting inhibition of 'self' pollen by the stigma have been maintained in extant A. thaliana. Based on studies in Brassica species, the membrane-tethered kinase MLPK, the ARM repeat-containing U-box protein ARC1, and the exocyst subunit Exo70A1 have been proposed to function as components of an SI signaling cascade. Here we tested the role of these molecules in the SI response of A. thaliana SRK-SCR plants. We show that the A. thaliana ARC1 ortholog is a highly decayed pseudogene. We also show that, unlike reports in Brassica, inactivation of the MLPK ortholog AtAPK1b and overexpression of Exo70A1 neither abolish nor weaken SI in A. thaliana SRK-SCR plants. These results do not support a role for these molecules in the SI response of A. thaliana. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
