Repression of the auxin response pathway increases Arabidopsis susceptibility to necrotrophic fungi
In plants, resistance to necrotrophic pathogens depends on the interplay between different hormone systems, such as those regulated by salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), ethylene, and abscisic acid.

A local regulatory network around three NAC transcription factors in stress responses and senescence in Arabidopsis leaves [PDF]
A model is presented describing the gene regulatory network surrounding three similar NAC transcription factors that have roles in Arabidopsis leaf senescence and stress responses. ANAC019, ANAC055 and ANAC072 belong to the same clade of NAC domain genes

CitPH4 Confers Resistance to Citrus Canker by Activating Papain‐Like Cysteine Protease
ABSTRACT Citrus canker, a devastating disease caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), poses a significant threat to global citrus production due to the high susceptibility of nearly all commercial citrus cultivars to it. Although transcription factor Citrus PH4 (CitPH4) is well known for regulating fruit acidity, its potential role in plant ...

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

Eco-friendly methods to control infection of Botrytis cinerea during propagation of grapevines
Grey mould (Botrytis cinerea Pers.) is a pathogenic fungus which causes damage to the production of grapevine nursery plant materials especially on the stored canes or on graftings during the callusing period.

Asymmetric microbial conversion of (E)-2-benzylideneindan-1-one by the filamentous fungi Botrytis cinerea, Trichoderma viride, and Eutypa lata [PDF]
The transformation of (E)-2-benzylideneindan-1-one 1 by the filamentous fungi Botrytis cinerea, Trichoderma viride, and Eutypa lata as biocatalysts was studied.

ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea is a widespread plant pathogenic ascomycete that causes grey mould in over 1400 species and impacts global crop yields. Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA)‐induced gene silencing is a promising technology for pest control, but efficient delivery remains a major challenge.

Simultaneous Silencing of Xylanase Genes in Botrytis cinerea
The endo-β-1,4-xylanase BcXyn11A is one of several plant cell-wall degrading enzymes that the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea secretes during interaction with its hosts. In addition to its enzymatic activity, this protein also acts as an elicitor of the defense response in plants and has been identified as a virulence factor.
