A role for 3′-O-β-D-ribofuranosyladenosine in altering plant immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Our understanding of how, and the extent to which, phytopathogens reconfigure host metabolic pathways to enhance virulence is remarkably limited. Here we investigate the dynamics of the natural disaccharide nucleoside, 3′-O-β-D-ribofuranosyladenosine, in

Lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine primes the plant immune system and promotes basal resistance against hemibiotrophic pathogens

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2021
Background Lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) is a natural phospholipid that functions in the early stages of plant senescence. Plant innate immunity and early leaf senescence share molecular components.

Nuclear processes associated with plant immunity and pathogen susceptibility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plants are sessile organisms that have evolved exquisite and sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to their biotic and abiotic environment. Plants deploy receptors and vast signalling networks to detect, transmit and respond to a given biotic threat by ...

Engineering Smut Resistance in Maize by Site-Directed Mutagenesis of LIPOXYGENASE 3

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Biotic stresses caused by microbial pathogens impair crop yield and quality if not restricted by expensive and often ecologically problematic pesticides.

A Novel and Efficient Platform for Discovering Noncanonical Quorum-Quenching Proteins

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Quorum sensing (QS) is a well-known chemical signaling system responsible for intercellular communication that is widespread in bacteria. Acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) is the most-studied QS signal.

Plant Aquaporins in Infection by and Immunity Against Pathogens – A Critical Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Plant aquaporins (AQPs) of the plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) family face constant risk of hijack by pathogens aiming to infect plants. PIPs can also be involved in plant immunity against infection.

Plant immunity inducers: from discovery to agricultural application

open access: yesStress Biology, 2022
While conventional chemical fungicides directly eliminate pathogens, plant immunity inducers activate or prime plant immunity. In recent years, considerable progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms of immune regulation in plants.

Phylogenomic analysis of MKKs and MAPKs from 16 legumes and detection of interacting pairs in chickpea divulge MAPK signalling modules

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated phosphorylation cascade is a vital component of plant cellular signalling. Despite this, MAPK signalling cascade is less characterized in crop legumes.

Boosting plant immunity with CRISPR/Cas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
CRISPR/Cas has recently been transferred to plants to make them resistant to geminiviruses, a damaging family of DNA viruses. We discuss the potential and the limitations of this method.See related Research: http://www.genomebiology.com/2015/16/1 ...
