Harnessing plant susceptibility genes into strategies for enhanced disease resistance

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Integrated model of S gene modules in plant pathogen interactions. This model summarises representative host susceptibility modules that can be exploited by bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens. In the bacterial infection module, Xanthomonas transcription activator‐like effectors activate OsSWEET14 through effector‐binding elements in its promoter ...

Developmental and cytochemical studies of the endosperm chalazal haustorium of Rhinanthus serotinus (Scrophulariaceae) [PDF]

, 2013
We examined the development of the endosperm chalazal haustorium of Rhinanthus serotinus, using histochemical assays and light and electron microscopy. The chalazal haustorium is a huge single cell containing two enlarged nuclei.

Phloem-Conducting Cells in Haustoria of the Root-Parasitic Plant Phelipanche aegyptiaca Retain Nuclei and Are Not Mature Sieve Elements

Plants, 2017
Phelipanche aegyptiaca parasitizes a wide range of plants, including important crops, and causes serious damage to their production. P. aegyptiaca develops a specialized intrusive organ called a haustorium that establishes connections to the host’s xylem

Integrated Functional Characterization of Hemileia vastatrix Effector Candidates Reveals Coordinated Immune Suppression, Sequential Deployment and Compartment‐Specific Targeting

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
A bacterial effector delivery screen identifies PTI‐suppressing Hemileia vastatrix effector candidates. ABSTRACT Coffee leaf rust, caused by the obligate biotrophic fungus Hemileia vastatrix, remains the most destructive disease of coffee worldwide.

Effects of Sulfated Modification on the Structural Characterization and Antioxidant Activities of Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.)Haustorium Polysaccharide

Shipin gongye ke-ji
To investigate the effect of sulfated modification on the structure and function of coconut haustorium polysaccharide (CHP), three kinds of sulfated coconut haustorium polysaccharides (SCHP-2, SCHP-3, and SCHP-4) were prepared using sulfation reagents ...

Overview of the functional virulent genome of the coffee leaf rust pathogen Hemileia vastatrix with an emphasis on early stages of infection

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Hemileia vastatrix is the causal agent of coffee leaf rust, the most important disease of coffee (Coffea arabica). In this work, a 454-pyrosequencing transcriptome analysis of H.

Suppression of ZmJAZ12 Expression Modulates Jasmonic Acid and Salicylic Acid Signalling and Enhances Maize Resistance to Southern Corn Rust

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
We identified ZmJAZ12 as a key susceptibility regulator that suppresses JA/SA‐mediated defence through its interaction with ZmMYC5, thereby uncovering a hormonal crosstalk mechanism governing maize resistance to southern corn rust. ABSTRACT Southern corn rust (SCR), caused by the biotrophic fungus Puccinia polysora, severely threatens maize yield ...

Limits of Symptom‐Based Inference in Fungal Plant Disease: Latency, Quiescence and Dormancy

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Symptomless fungal infections are not biologically uniform. Latency, quiescence and dormancy represent distinct biological states with different implications for interpreting infection, symptom development and epidemic emergence. Recognising these distinctions reduces reliance on symptom‐based inference in fungal plant disease. ABSTRACT In fungal plant

Transformation and regeneration of the holoparasitic plant Phelipanche aegyptiaca

Plant Methods, 2011
Background Transformation and subsequent regeneration of holoparasitic plants has never been reported, in part due to challenges in developing transformation protocols, but also because regeneration of obligate parasites is difficult since their survival

Tandem Kinase WTK1 Triggers Waves of Transcriptional Reprogramming Underlying Wheat Resistance to Stripe Rust

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Tandem kinases are emerging regulators of plant immunity, but the downstream defense programs they activate remain poorly understood. Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a major constraint on global wheat production. The Yr15 resistance gene, derived from wild emmer wheat, encodes the tandem kinase protein WTK1.
