Mini Review: Potential Applications of Non-host Resistance for Crop Improvement [PDF]
, 2016 Plant breeding for disease resistance is crucial to sustain global crop production. For decades, plant breeders and researchers have extensively used host plant resistance genes (R-genes) to develop disease resistant cultivars.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Plant resistance to plant diseases [PDF]
, 2000 Plants are continuously exposed to the attack of several thousand of different strains of fungi, bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. A plant can be attacked by thousands, hundreds and in the case of leaf spot in woody plants, even by hundreds of thousands of a single pathogen individuals.
