LYM2-dependent chitin perception limits molecular flux via plasmodesmata

, 2013
Chitin acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern from fungal pathogens whose perception triggers a range of defense responses. We show that LYSIN MOTIF DOMAIN-CONTAINING GLYCOSYLPHOSPHATIDYLINOSITOL-ANCHORED PROTEIN 2 (LYM2), the Arabidopsis ...

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

The endoplasmic reticulum-localized Ca2+-ATPase OsACA5 regulates immunity and the seed setting rate in rice

Frontiers in Plant Science
Calcium signaling plays a central role in plant immunity and development, and its homeostasis relies on the precise regulation of calcium transporters such as Ca2+-ATPases.

Convergent evolution of filamentous microbes towards evasion of glycan-triggered immunity

, 2016
I. II. III. IV. V. VI. References Summary: All filamentous microbes produce and release a wide range of glycans, which are essential determinants of microbe-microbe and microbe-host interactions. Major cell wall constituents, such as chitin and β-glucans,

Hydrogen Gas Enhances Salinity Tolerance in Tomato Seedlings by Regulating the S‐Nitrosylation of MEK1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3656-3678, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydrogen gas (H2) effectively alleviates abiotic stress in horticultural plants. Protein S‐nitrosylation, a key post‐translational modification, serves as a critical mechanism for nitric oxide (NO) to exert its biological function under adverse conditions.

VqLecRKV.4 and VqBAK1 Modulate Grapevine Resistance to Powdery Mildew by Regulating Dynamic Balance of ROS

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3691-3707, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungal pathogen Erysiphe necator, severely impacts plant growth and berry quality. However, the grapevine receptors and molecular mechanisms underlying grapevine resistance to E. necator remain poorly understood.

The miR171a‐TaSCL6‐1 Module Acts Downstream of miR164‐Targeted TaNAC21/22 to Regulate Leaf Rust Resistance in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3723-3738, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina, poses a significant threat to global wheat production. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of plant growth, development and stress responses; however, their role in wheat resistance to leaf rust remains poorly understood.

Domain gain or loss in a fungal chitinase enables specialization towards antagonism or immune suppression

Nature Communications
Effector proteins orchestrate interactions that determine host compatibility and microbial competition. Among these are microbial chitinases, widespread enzymes involved in nutrient acquisition, fungal cell-wall remodelling, and antagonism, yet how their

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.

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.
