Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most important diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) globally. Recently, more aggressive Pst races have evolved to acquire new virulence profiles and are adapted better to

Rho family GTPase-dependent immunity in plants and animals
In plants, sophisticated forms of immune systems have developed to cope with a variety of pathogens. Accumulating evidence indicates that Rac (also known as Rop), a member of the Rho family of small GTPases, is a key regulator of immunity in plants and ...

The Receptor-Like Kinase SERK3/BAK1 Is Required for Basal Resistance against the Late Blight Pathogen Phytophthora infestans in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
BACKGROUND The filamentous oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans causes late blight, an economically important disease, on members of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), such as the crop plants potato and tomato.

The endoplasmic reticulum in plant immunity and cell death [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a highly dynamic organelle in eukaryotic cells and a major production site of proteins destined for vacuoles, the plasma membrane, or apoplast in plants.

Cell-type-specific execution of effector-triggered immunity
Summary Effector-triggered immunity (ETI) is a central component of host defense, but whether all cell types execute ETI similarly remains unknown. We combined chemically imposed immune activation with single-cell transcriptomics to profile ETI responses across all leaf cell types in Arabidopsis.

Geminivirus–Host Interactions: Action and Reaction in Receptor-Mediated Antiviral Immunity
In plant−virus interactions, the plant immune system and virulence strategies are under constant pressure for dominance, and the balance of these opposing selection pressures can result in disease or resistance.

Effector Triggered Immunity: NLR Immune Perception and Downstream Defense Responses [PDF]
Plants have evolved sophisticated surveillance systems to recognize conserved microbial patterns or secreted pathogen effector proteins. Research in Arabidopsis has significantly advanced our understanding of plant immune perception and signaling. Intracellular immune receptors possessing central nucleotide binding and C-terminal leucine rich repeat ...

Comparative analysis of plant immune receptor architectures uncovers host proteins likely targeted by pathogens. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Plants deploy immune receptors to detect pathogen-derived molecules and initiate defense responses. Intracellular plant immune receptors called nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins contain a central nucleotide-binding (NB ...

Convergent and Divergent Signaling in PAMP-Triggered Immunity and Effector-Triggered Immunity [PDF]
Plants use diverse immune receptors to sense pathogen attacks. Recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors localized on the plasma membrane leads to PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI). Detection of pathogen effectors by intracellular or plasma membrane–localized immune receptors results in effector ...

Receptors in the Induction of the Plant Innate Immunity
Plants adjust amplitude and duration of immune responses via different strategies to maintain growth, development, and resistance to pathogens. Pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP)-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI ...
