In Arabidopsis, AtCPK10 expression is induced by pathogen infection, and the T-DNA insertion line with AtCPK10 expression results in a slight decrease in the levels of defense marker genes PR1, PR2 and AIG1 after inoculation with pathogens [28], illustrating that AtCPK10 may be involved in the plant defense response. This evidence concerns the gene TMEM37 and infection.
