All Roads Lead to Rome: Pathways to Engineering Disease Resistance in Plants
Crops lost to diseases necessitate a deeper understanding of plant immunity and the development of disease resistance. Here, the arms‐race between plants and pathogens is briefly described, and a comprehensive overview of the current and emerging strategies for engineering disease resistance in plants is provided.

Plant‐based protein crops and their improvement: Current status and future perspectives
Abstract The plant‐based protein industry is rapidly growing and is projected to grow to over $27 billion by 2030. In addition to monetary benefits, plant‐based protein crops, particularly pulse crops (i.e., legume species with dry edible seed), can supplement the existing crop biodiversity and break the disease and insect pest cycle in drastically ...
