Plant defense strategies: The dual armor of disease resistance and tolerance

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
Plants employ dual strategies against pathogens: Resistance limits invasion via immune responses, whereas tolerance mitigates damage to sustain growth—together enhancing survival under infections. Abstract Pathogen infections pose a significant threat to plant health, global food security, and ecosystems.

Zymoseptoria tritici stealth infection is facilitated by stage‐specific downregulation of a β‐glucanase

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 3191-3207, December 2025.
Summary Plant cell walls constitute a major defence barrier against pathogens, although it is unclear how specific cell wall components impact pathogen colonisation. Pathogens secrete cell wall‐degrading enzymes (CWDEs) to facilitate plant colonisation, but damaged or infected cells are often a source of cell wall‐derived oligosaccharides that trigger ...

A pair of GPI‐anchored proteins regulate soybean immunity and disease resistance in coordination with GmLMM1 and GmRALFs

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4353-4366, October 2025.
Summary Plant cell‐surface‐localized pattern recognition receptors and co‐receptors recognize conserved microbial patterns to initiate pattern‐triggered immunity (PTI), which confers moderate and broad‐spectrum resistance to most pathogens. For instance, the FLS2 receptor recognizes bacterial flagellin (or epitope flg22) by forming a complex with its ...

Exogenous treatment with glutamate induces immune responses in Arabidopsis.

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2019
Plant resistance inducers (PRIs) are compounds that protect plants from diseases by activating immunity responses. Exogenous treatment with glutamate (Glu), an important amino acid for all living organisms, induces resistance against fungal pathogens in ...

Aetiopathogenesis of infantile epileptic spasms syndrome and mechanisms of action of adrenocorticotrophin hormone/corticosteroids in children: A scoping review

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 1004-1025, August 2025.
Why does infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) occur with a variety of underlying conditions and why does it respond to adrenocorticotrophin hormone (ACTH)/corticosteroids? Our scoping review summarizes five hypotheses from the literature: gene/epigenetic regulation, stress/HPA axis activation, neuroinflammation/immune function, altered neuronal ...

A Novel Pathosystem With the Model Plant Arabidopsis thaliana for Defining the Molecular Basis of Taphrina Infections

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
A Taphrina strain, identified as Taphrina tormentillae, was shown to cause disease symptoms on the genetic model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, from which it was isolated. A genetic approach was used to implicate the known co‐receptor BAK1 in the activation of immune responses by likely PAMPs found in T. tormentillae cell walls.

Small, but mitey: investigating the molecular genetic basis for mite domatia development and intraspecific variation in Vitis riparia using transcriptomics

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 1, Page 215-231, January 2025.
Summary Here, we investigated the molecular genetic basis of mite domatia, structures on the underside of leaves that house mutualistic mites, and intraspecific variation in domatia size in Vitis riparia (riverbank grape). Domatia and leaf traits were measured, and the transcriptomes of mite domatia from two genotypes of V.
