CERK1 is required for chitin-triggered reactive oxygen species generation in melon and is broadly conserved in cucurbits [PDF]
CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (CERK1), originally identified in Arabidopsis thaliana, encodes a pattern recognition receptor that perceives the fungal cell wall component called chitin to activate immune responses, including the production of ...

Molecular recognition in plant root endosymbiosis. [PDF]
SUMMARY Root endosymbiosis is one of the most intimate types of plant–microbe interactions in which a symbiont is hosted within a living plant cell. In this symbiosis, nitrogen‐fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi support plant nutrient provisioning in exchange for carbohydrates and lipids.

Arabidopsis ubiquitin ligase PUB12 interacts with and negatively regulates Chitin Elicitor Receptor Kinase 1 (CERK1) [PDF]
In Arabidopsis, fungal chitin is recognized as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) by the chitin receptor complex containing the lysin-motif (LysM) receptor-like kinases CERK1 and LYK5.

Effect of the biopesticide Novoсhizol on the expression of defense genes during wheat infection with stem rust Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici [PDF]
Stem rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is a harmful disease affecting grain crops. The traditional way to combat this and other infectious plant diseases is to use chemical pesticides.

LIK1, A CERK1-Interacting Kinase, Regulates Plant Immune Responses in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Chitin, an integral component of the fungal cell wall, is one of the best-studied microbe-associated molecular patterns. Previous work identified a LysM receptor-like kinase (LysM-RLK1/CERK1) as the primary chitin receptor in Arabidopsis.

ESCRT: A Cellular Nexus of Plant Immunity and Pathogen Counter-Strategies. [PDF]
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) plays multifaceted roles in plants' responses to pathogens, including regulation of the localization and fate of immune receptors and other related cellular processes. ABSTRACT The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery consists of multiprotein complexes conserved ...

A high-quality haplotype-resolved genome of Pyrus calleryana provides insights into adaptive gene families. [PDF]
Abstract Callery pear (Pyrus calleryana) is a deciduous species native to East Asia with notable ornamental and ecological value, but the genomic resources for this species remain limited. Here, we report the first haplotype‐resolved, chromosome‐scale genome of P. calleryana.

Current Understanding of Cell-Surface Immune Receptors for MAMPs and Plant Parasites in the Solanaceae Family. [PDF]
Members of the Solanaceae family use diverse cell‐surface receptors to sense microbes and parasites, triggering immune responses that vary across species and cultivars. ABSTRACT Cell‐surface receptors play a central role in plant defence by enabling the perception of microbial signatures upon initial contact, activating immune responses and protecting ...

Structure-informed engineering of plant-microbe interactions. [PDF]
SUMMARY This review critically evaluates how structural biology has enabled interface‐informed engineering of plant–microbe interactions, with a clear emphasis on the relative maturity of plant–pathogen research compared with symbiosis engineering. In plant immunity, atomic resolution structures of apoplastic receptors, host targets, and intracellular ...
