Ustilago maydis Phosphatidic Acid and Phosphatidylserine‐Targeting Secreted Lipase Lip3 Is Involved in Pathogenesis

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ustilago maydis secreted lipase, Lip3 targets PA and PS and alkalinises the host apoplast, thus promoting virulence. Loss of Lip3 results in reduced apoplastic pH and decreased pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Lipases constitute important virulence factors. By targeting specific lipids involved in various cellular processes, lipases regulate growth, development,

‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Effector SDE4250 Targets Citrus Proteasome Protein RPN10 to Inhibit Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
SDE4250 suppressed 26S proteasome activity by targeting CsRPN10 and enhancing its degradation via the proteasome pathway. This impairment of proteasome function subsequently attenuates SA‐mediated defence responses, thereby increasing citrus susceptibility to promote CLas infection.

The Dual Role of Methyl Caffeate: Growth Inhibition of Pseudomonas syringae and Induction of Resistance to Bacterial Speck Disease in Tomato

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Methyl caffeate exhibits dual functionality against Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato. It directly disrupts bacterial membrane integrity, induces reactive oxygen species accumulation, and inhibits flagellar motility and the type III secretion system. Concurrently, it primes plant defence by activating defence‐related gene expression and enzyme activities,

Cell‐type‐specific gating of gene regulatory modules as a hallmark of early immune responses in Arabidopsis leaves

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2007-2025, May 2026.
Summary In plants, multiple cell types contribute to immunity, but what division of labor exists among cell types when immunity is activated? We compared, at single‐cell resolution, the response of Arabidopsis thaliana leaf cells during pattern‐triggered and effector‐triggered immunity (PTI/ETI), sampled at 3 and 5 h after infection with Pseudomonas ...

Epigenetic regulation of mycorrhizal symbioses: from plastic responses to transgenerational legacies

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1438-1452, May 2026.
Summary Mycorrhizal symbioses represent one of the most widespread and ecologically significant plant–microbe interactions, shaping plant nutrition, stress resilience, and ecosystem functioning. Beyond their role in nutrient exchange and systemic defense, growing evidence suggests that these symbioses also influence plant plasticity within and across ...

Novel roles of sulfur metabolism in stress‐controlled stomata aperture regulation

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1460-1467, May 2026.
Summary Stomatal closure allows plants to conserve water by reducing transpiration during drought. Surprisingly, the assimilation of the macronutrient sulfur is intimately connected to the drought stress response. This Tansley insight will only briefly touch on the general impact of sulfate assimilation on the production of drought‐response metabolites.
