WG7 is not essential for Pikh-mediated blast resistance. A Spray inoculation of LTH, Pikh and WG7 mutants in the Pikh background with M. oryzae strain FJ802AvrPik-D (with AvrPik-D). LTH was used as susceptible control. The photographs were taken at 7 days post inoculation. B Working model of WG7-mediated basal resistance against M. oryzae in rice. During infection, AvrPik-D is secreted into rice cells by M. oryzae. AvrPik-D targets the host nucleus to promote transcriptional activity of WG7, Meanwhile, the expression of defense-related genes and the ROS burst are reduced by WG7, which negatively regulates basal resistance against M. oryzae in rice
