Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Comprehensive analysis of the LysM protein family and functional characterization of the key LysM effector StLysM1, which modulates plant immunity in Setosphaeria turcica

Journal of Integrative Agriculture
LysM proteins contain the lysin domain (LysM), bind chitin and are found in various organisms including fungi. In phytopathogenic fungi, certain LysM proteins act as effectors to inhibit host immunity, thus increasing fungal virulence.

MAMP (Microbe-Associated Molecular Pattern) triggered immunity in Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Plants are sessile organisms that are under constant attack from microbes. They rely on both preformed defenses, and their innate immune system to ward of the microbial pathogens.

‐4 controls pattern‐triggered immunity and basal resistance to bacterial and fungal pathogens in rice

, 2023
International audienceReceptor‐like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) mediate the intracellular signaling downstream of pattern‐recognition receptors (PRRs). Several RLCKs from subfamily VII of rice ( Oryza sativa ) have important roles in plant immunity, but ...

Chemical treatment rescues reduced growth of the autoimmune mutant chs3‐2D without compromising its immune responses

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
We generated a compound by chemical modification that can efficiently rescue growth without decreasing the immune response of the chs3‐2D autoimmune mutants, thus chemically uncoupling its growth–defence trade‐off. Abstract Plant development in many species including Arabidopsis relies on the accurate balance between growth and defence.

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Surface α-1,3-glucan facilitates fungal stealth infection by interfering with innate immunity in plants.

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Plants evoke innate immunity against microbial challenges upon recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), such as fungal cell wall chitin. Nevertheless, pathogens may circumvent the host PAMP-triggered immunity. We previously reported

The role of effectors in nonhost resistance to filamentous plant pathogens [PDF]

, 2014
In nature, most plants are resistant to a wide range of phytopathogens. However, mechanisms contributing to this so-called nonhost resistance (NHR) are poorly understood.

Biodegradable Natural Polymer‐Based Drug Delivery Systems for Bone Tissue Engineering

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 966-988, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing incidence of bone diseases and injuries, especially among aging populations, has underscored the shortcomings of traditional treatments such as bone grafts and metal implants, which often face complications including immune rejection, mechanical failure, and delayed healing.

Dissecting the molecular interactions between wheat and the fungal pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
The Dothideomycete fungus Zymoseptoria tritici (previously known as Mycosphaerella graminicola and Septoria tritici) is the causative agent of Septoria tritici leaf blotch (STB) disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).
