Masters of perception: phosphorylation‐dependent signaling in plants

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 89-94, April 2026.
Summary Plants are masters of perception, reacting to a myriad of biochemical and physical cues in a constantly changing environment. Plants rely on local cell‐based signal processing to perceive and react sufficiently fast to a multitude of stimuli. The ability to respond quickly is crucial for sustaining growth, defense, and metabolism and thereby ...

The Arabidopsis Protein Phosphatase PP2C38 Negatively Regulates the Central Immune Kinase BIK1.

PLoS Pathogens, 2016
Plants recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via cell surface-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to PRR-triggered immunity (PTI).

ZmWRKY92‐Mediated miR169s/NF‐YA13 Module Confers Maize Resistance to Bipolaris maydis by Activating Flavonoid Biosynthesis

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
ZmWRKY92 suppresses zma‐miR169s, leading to ZmNF‐YA13 accumulation and the enhancement of flavonoid synthesis and maize resistance. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are pivotal regulators of plant immunity. While our prior work implicated zma‐miR169s in maize defence against Bipolaris maydis, its upstream regulation and downstream signalling mechanisms ...

Arabidopsis glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein LLG1 associates with and modulates FLS2 to regulate innate immunity [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance Recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by the host immune system is essential for activation of innate immunity in plants and animals. In plants, the receptor kinase FLAGELLIN SENSING 2 (FLS2) recognizes flagellin, a PAMP from bacteria.

The Arabidopsis flagellin receptor FLS2 mediates the perception of Xanthomonas Ax21 secreted peptides [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011
Detection of microbes by plants relies in part on an array of pattern-recognition receptors that recognize conserved microbial signatures, so-called “microbe-associated molecular patterns.” The Arabidopsis thaliana receptor-like kinase FLS2 is the pattern-recognition receptor for bacterial flagellin.

The maize mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene ZmMAPKKK45 is associated with multiple disease resistance

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3003-3020, March 2026.
Summary Southern leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is a major foliar disease of maize (Zea mays) world‐wide. A genome‐wide association study was performed to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance in maize. Functional validation was performed using mutant and transgenic analyses.

The receptor-like kinase NIK1 targets FLS2/BAK1 immune complex and inversely modulates antiviral and antibacterial immunity

Nature Communications, 2019
Plants deploy numerous receptor-like kinases (RLKs) to respond to pathogens. Here the authors show that NIK1, an RLK that positively regulates antiviral immunity, negatively regulates the response to bacteria by modulating FLS2/BAK1 complex formation ...

Enhanced Arabidopsis pattern-triggered immunity by overexpression of cysteine-rich receptor-like kinases

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Upon recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) such as the bacterial flagellin (or the derived peptide flg22) by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) such as the FLAGELLIN SENSING2 (FLS2), plants activate the pattern-triggered immunity

Uncovering Convergent Pattern Recognition Receptors Recognising Phytophthora Across Plant Lineages

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1098-1109, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are pivotal for plant immunity, yet their discovery in crops is hindered by lineage‐specific divergence. We demonstrate that microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) often activate immunity through phylogenetically unrelated, convergently evolved PRRs across plant lineages.

Salmonella enterica Flagellin Is Recognized via FLS2 and Activates PAMP-Triggered Immunity in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

Molecular Plant, 2014
Infections with Salmonella enterica belong to the most prominent causes of food poisoning and infected fruits and vegetables represent important vectors for salmonellosis. Recent evidence indicates that plants recognize S. enterica and raise defense responses. Nonetheless, the molecular mechanisms controlling the interaction of S.
