The results showed that MAPK and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) RLKs were expressed in all infected samples, whereas CDPKs were expressed in both unharvested and harvested samples during early stages but only in the harvested samples during late stages, suggesting that different protein kinases may function at different stages of pathogen infection (Djami-Tchatchou et al., 2012). This evidence concerns the gene WEE1 and infection.
