The study demonstrates that calcium-dependent protein kinases NbCDPK4 and NbCDPK5 directly phosphorylate the NADPH oxidase NbRBOHB at Ser‑123, enhancing sustained ROS production during effector-triggered immunity in Nicotiana benthamiana. Constitutively active CDPKs also upregulate NbRBOHB transcription, and phosphorylation of Ser‑123 is amplified by Ca2+ influx triggered by an autoactive helper NLR (NRC4). These results define a NbCDPK‑NbRBOHB signaling module that links NLR activation to prolonged ROS bursts in ETI.
