Guardians or Gateways? The Intricate Relationship Between Plant Cell Walls and Pathogenic Xanthomonas

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
An overview of the intricate interactions between Xanthomonas and the plant cell wall during the infection process. ABSTRACT Plants have evolved a complex cell wall (CW) providing support and protection against environmental constraints, including constant attacks from pests and pathogens.

CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Disruption of CsLIEXP1 Reveals Expansin as a Key Susceptibility Factor for Citrus Canker Disease

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
The Citrus sinensis LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDERIES 1 (CsLOB1) gene, which is directly induced by the Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri effector PthA4, functions as a transcription factor and citrus canker susceptibility (S) gene. Genome editing of CsLOB1 has been

The Transcription Factors HbWRKY29 and HbPTI5 cooperatively enhance rubber tree resistance to powdery mildew

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Upon Erysiphe quercicola infection, rubber HbWRKY29 is rapidly induced and physically interacts with HbPTI5 to trigger HR. HbWRKY29 binds the HbPTI5 promoter (W‐box), enhancing HbPTI5 expression, which activates HbTLP1 expression, leading to reinforced defence.

First record of bacterial canker (Clavibacter michiganensis ssp. michiganensis) on tomato in Cyprus

, 2000
Symptoms of bacterial canker disease on tomato were first observed in June 1998, in three tomato fields in the semi-mountainous region of Eptagonia (Limassol district). In two of these fields, which were planted with cv. FA 179, infection was almost 100%,

Copper‐Regulated Modulation of the MdbZIP11–MdHAT5 Transcriptional Module Enhances ABA‐Mediated Immunity in Apple

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
A Cu2+‐regulated bZIP–HD‐ZIP transcriptional cascade activates ABA‐dependent immunity in apple. ABSTRACT Transcription factor‐mediated integration of hormonal signalling is central to plant immunity, yet how such regulatory modules are activated by external signals in perennial fruit crops remains largely unknown.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3616-3633, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

D-PSA-K: A Model for Estimating the Accumulated Potential Damage on Kiwifruit Canes Caused by Bacterial Canker during the Growing and Overwintering Seasons

The Plant Pathology Journal, 2016
We developed a model, termed D-PSA-K, to estimate the accumulated potential damage on kiwifruit canes caused by bacterial canker during the growing and overwintering seasons.

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4105-4120, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

Phosphites for the management of tomato bacterial canker and stem rot

, 2023
Tomato bacterial canker and stem rot are two of the most devastating bacterial diseases of tomatoes worldwide. Tomato cultivars that are resistant to these diseases are not available; thus, alternative control strategies are needed.

ZmWRKY29 Transcriptionally Represses ZmRBOHC to Attenuate ROS Production and Facilitates Gibberella Stalk Rot Susceptibility in Maize

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4044-4060, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gibberella stalk rot (GSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens maize production. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying maize resistance to GSR remain poorly understood. Here, we have identified ZmWRKY29 as a transcriptional repressor induced by F.
