Methods A. thaliana accessions and HIF lines were derived from stocks maintained in the lab. All seeds were surface-sterilized by a 1 min submersion in 70% ethanol with 0.01% Triton X-100, followed by a 12 min submersion in over-the-counter bleach (DanKlorix; 2.8% NaOCl w/w) diluted to 10% in water, followed by three washes in sterile distilled water. Seeds were left in water and stratified at 4°C in sterile centrifuge tubes for 1 week before planting. For genome editing, an A.

Abstract When plants defend themselves from pathogens, this often comes with a trade–off: the same genes that protect a plant from disease can also reduce its growth and fecundity in the absence of pathogens. One protein implicated in a major growth-defense trade–off in the plant Arabidopsis thaliana is ACCELERATED CELL DEATH 6 (ACD6), an ion channel that modulates salicylic acid (SA) synthesis to potentiate a wide range of defenses.
