| مستخلص: | SUMMARY: Arabidopsis thaliana WRKY proteins are potential targets of pathogen‐secreted effectors. RESISTANT TO RALSTONIA SOLANACEARUM 1 (RRS1; AtWRKY52) is a well‐studied Arabidopsis nucleotide‐binding and leucine‐rich repeat (NLR) immune receptor carrying a C‐terminal WRKY domain that functions as an integrated decoy. RRS1‐R recognizes the effectors AvrRps4 from Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi and PopP2 from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum by direct interaction through its WRKY domain. AvrRps4 and PopP2 were previously shown to interact with several AtWRKYs. However, how these effectors selectively interact with their virulence targets remains unknown. Here, we show that several members of subgroup IIIb of the AtWRKY family are targeted by AvrRps4 and PopP2. We demonstrate that several AtWRKYs induce cell death when transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana, indicating the activation of immune responses. AtWRKY54 was the only cell death‐inducing AtWRKY that interacted with both AvrRps4 and PopP2. We found that AvrRps4 and PopP2 specifically suppress AtWRKY54‐induced cell death. We also demonstrate that the amino acid residues required for the avirulence function of AvrRps4 and PopP2 are critical for suppressing AtWRKY54‐induced cell death. AtWRKY54 residues predicted to form a binding interface with AvrRps4 were predominantly located in the DNA binding domain and necessary for inducing cell death. Notably, one AtWRKY54 residue, E164, contributes to affinity with AvrRps4 and is exclusively present among subgroup IIIb AtWRKYs, yet is located outside of the DNA‐binding domain. Surprisingly, AtWRKY54 mutated at E164 evaded AvrRps4‐mediated cell death suppression. Taking our observations together, we propose that AvrRp4 and PopP2 specifically target AtWRKY54 to suppress plant immune responses. Significance Statement: RESISTANT TO RALSTONIA SOLANACEARUM 1 (RRS1) is an Arabidopsis disease resistance protein that recognizes two sequence‐unrelated bacterial effectors, AvrRps4 and PopP2, through its WRKY domain. To better understand the functions of AvrRps4 and PopP2, we explored Arabidopsis WRKY proteins (AtWRKY) and found that AvrRps4 and PopP2 selectively associate with AtWRKY54 and suppress AtWRKY54‐induced immune response.
