Plant Immunity to Necrotrophs

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2012
Plants inhabit environments crowded with infectious microbes that pose constant threats to their survival. Necrotrophic pathogens are notorious for their aggressive and wide-ranging virulence strategies that promote host cell death and acquire nutrients for growth and reproduction from dead cells.

Antibodies for a bespoke plant immunity

Cell Host & Microbe, 2023
Plants do not have antibodies. However, in a recent Science article, Kourelis and Marchal et al. have demonstrated that plant immune receptors can be retrofitted with animal antibodies to provide plants potentially with hundreds and thousands of options to perceive attacking microbes. This is the dawn of bespoke plant immunity.

Mitochondrial functions in plant immunity

Trends in Plant Science, 2022
Mitochondria are energy factories of cells and are important for intracellular interactions with other organelles. Emerging evidence indicates that mitochondria play essential roles in the response to pathogen infection. During infection, pathogens deliver numerous enzymes and effectors into host cells, and some of these effectors target mitochondria ...

Evolutionary footprint of plant immunity

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2022
There are pieces of evidence from genomic footprints and fossil records indicating that plants have co-evolved with microbes after terrestrialization for more than 407 million years. Therefore, to truly comprehend plant evolution, we need to understand the co-evolutionary process and history between plants and microbes.

Proteolysis in plant immunity

The Plant Cell
Abstract Compared with transcription and translation, protein degradation machineries can act faster and be targeted to different subcellular compartments, enabling immediate regulation of signaling events. It is therefore not surprising that proteolysis has been used extensively to control homeostasis of key regulators in different ...

Flagellin Signalling in Plant Immunity

2007
Like all higher living organisms, plants are constantly exposed to microbes that either grow epiphytically on the organ surface, establish beneficial interactions in specific tissues, or infect host tissues as pathogens and cause disease. In order to infect, pathogens must attach to the plant surface and break physical barriers to enter the tissue ...

Plant signalling in symbiosis and immunity

Nature, 2017
Plants encounter a myriad of microorganisms, particularly at the root-soil interface, that can invade with detrimental or beneficial outcomes. Prevalent beneficial associations between plants and microorganisms include those that promote plant growth by facilitating the acquisition of limiting nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus.

Immune networks for cement plants

Proceedings ISAD 93: International Symposium on Autonomous Decentralized Systems, 2002
Taking inspiration from the immune system mechanism, an application which identifies faulty sensors in the firing section of a cement plant by mutual recognition is presented. Some improvements of existing algorithms are described. Results using simulated data are reported and discussed. >

Signal transduction in plant immunity

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1996
Significant recent advances in the understanding of plant defense mechanisms include the isolation and characterization of resistance genes against bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens, the identification of genes involved in cell death, and the demonstration of the involvement of reactive oxygen species and salicylic acid in the signal-transduction ...

Lipopolysaccharides and Plant Innate Immunity

2010
Plants posses an innate immune system that has many parallels with those found in mammals and insects. A range of molecules of microbial origin called Microbe Associated Molecular Patterns (MAMPs) act to trigger basal defense responses in plants. These elicitors include lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from diverse Gram-negative bacteria.
