Ascomycete powdery mildew (PM) fungi belonging to the order of Erysiphales cause diseases on more than 10,000 plant species including economically important staple food crops and numerous horticultural plants. The Arabidopsis protein RPW8.2 confers broad-spectrum resistance against all infectious powdery mildew pathogens. RPW8.2 is unique among characterized plant R proteins in that it activates broad-spectrum resistance to PM fungi, and the protein is specifically targeted to the extra-haustorium membrane (EHM). However, how RPW8.2 is regulated to exert haustorium-targeted defenses remains poorly characterized. To understand how RPW8.2 is regulated, I first performed a thorough site-specific mutagenesis of potential serine or threonine re...
