eIF2α Phosphorylation by GCN2 Is Induced in the Presence of Chitin and Plays an Important Role in Plant Defense against <i>B. cinerea</i> Infection
Translation plays an important role in plant adaptation to different abiotic and biotic stresses; however, the mechanisms involved in translational regulation during each specific response and their effect in translation are poorly understood in plants. In this work, we show that GCN2 promotes eIF2α...
