The Majority of the Type III Effector Inventory of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 Can Suppress Plant Immunity

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
The Pseudomonas syringae type III protein secretion system (T3SS) and the type III effectors it injects into plant cells are required for plant pathogenicity and the ability to elicit a hypersensitive response (HR). The HR is a programmed cell death that

An Enigmatic Metabolite From Lepidopteran Oral Secretions Suppresses Plant Defenses

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT While feeding on plants, insects secrete specialized effector molecules that interfere with plant immunity and defense. Most effectors have been identified in piercing‐sucking insects and are proteinaceous. We previously found that oral secretions (OS) of the lepidopteran chewing herbivores Pieris brassicae and Spodoptera littoralis suppress ...

Negative Role of the Receptor‐Like Kinase GbMIK2 in Regulating Cotton Verticillium Wilt Resistance

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
Upon infection with Verticillium dahliae, cotton plants induce the interaction between GbMIK2 and GbOCP3 at the cell membrane and in the nucleus, which blocks ROS burst and JA‐mediated resistance, resulting in suppression of cotton resistance to Verticillium wilt.

The LRR Receptor‐Like Kinase MdRLKT23 Confers Valsa Canker Resistance by Regulating the Degradation of the Susceptibility Factor MdSTK1 in Apple (Malus domestica)

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
Apple LRR‐RLK MdRLKT23 interacts with and phosphorylates the susceptibility factor MdSTK1. Thus, MdRLKT23 could enhance apple defence responses by regulating the protein stability of MdSTK1. ABSTRACT Susceptibility genes in plants promote pathogen infection by supporting compatible pathogen‐plant interactions. However, how plants restrict the functions

Plant Immune Responses to Parasitic Nematodes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs), such as root-knot nematodes (RKNs) and cyst nematodes (CNs), are among the most devastating pests in agriculture. RKNs and CNs induce redifferentiation of root cells into feeding cells, which provide water and nutrients ...

The Rcs System Is Required for Virulence and Colonization of the Poplar Canker Bacterium Lonsdalea populi

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
The Rcs system coordinately regulates the expression of the pectate lyase gene pelE and the TolC‐family outer membrane channel gene omeP to promote host cell wall degradation and enhance the tolerance of the pathogen to reactive oxygen species (ROS), hence promoting the virulence of Lonsdalea populi.

A Lambda Red Recombinase‐Assisted CRISPR/Cas9 System for Efficient and Precise Genome Editing in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 6010-6027, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a powerful delivery tool for plant genetic transformation and a pivotal platform for agricultural biotechnology. However, laboratory strains of Agrobacterium have remained genetically unoptimized for decades, with genome engineering hindered by inefficient, endogenous homologous recombination systems.

Transcriptomic and symptomatic features of PAMP triggered immunity in grapevine leaves

, 2013
Pathogen associated molecular pattern- (PAMP-) triggered immunity (PTI, basal immunity, basal resistance) is the first, line of plant defence against invading microorganisms. Pre-treatment of intact grape leaves with PTI elicitors lead to prevention of

Plant Immunity: At the Crossroads of Pathogen Perception and Defense Response

Plants
Plants are challenged by different microbial pathogens that affect their growth and productivity. However, to defend pathogen attack, plants use diverse immune responses, such as pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), effector-triggered immunity (ETI), RNA ...

Effects of Atmospheric CO2 Levels on the Susceptibility of Maize to Diverse Pathogens

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 11, Page 8828-8850, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Rising atmospheric CO2 has significant implications for crop productivity and food security. Based on studies in C3 plants, elevated CO2 (eCO2) can shape plant‐pathogen interactions, although the outcomes are often variable. The question of how eCO2 influences immunity and disease development in C4 plants, such as the globally important cereal
