An eggshell-localised annexin plays a key role in the coordination of the life cycle of a plant-parasitic nematode with its host.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
Host-specific plant pathogens must coordinate their life cycles with the availability of a host plant. Although this is frequently achieved through a response to specific chemical cues derived from the host plant, little is known about the molecular ...

Commodity risk assessment of Petunia spp. and Calibrachoa spp. unrooted cuttings from Uganda

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the likelihood of pest freedom at entry in the EU, including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, potentially associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Uganda.

Plant defense strategies: The dual armor of disease resistance and tolerance

New Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
Plants employ dual strategies against pathogens: Resistance limits invasion via immune responses, whereas tolerance mitigates damage to sustain growth—together enhancing survival under infections. Abstract Pathogen infections pose a significant threat to plant health, global food security, and ecosystems.

NUDIX hydrolases target specific inositol pyrophosphates and regulate phosphate homeostasis and bacterial pathogen susceptibility in Arabidopsis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 12, Page 3123-3151, December 2025.
NUDIX‐type hydrolase enzymes of subclade I and II preferentially target the inositol pyrophosphate messengers 4‐ and 3‐InsP7, respectively. Inactivation of subclade II NUDTs disrupts phosphate homeostasis and enhances bacterial resistance, revealing connections between defense and nutrient signaling.

Virulence assessment of Portuguese isolates of potato cyst nematodes (Globodera spp.)

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2012
Identification of species and virulence groups of potato cyst nematodes (PCN), Globodera pallida and G. rostochiensis, present in field populations is important in the control of these nematodes by means of resistant cultivars.

Entomopathogenic Nematodes Induce Metabolic Reallocation in Maize Roots Without Altering the Performance of Two Root Herbivores, Diabrotica virgifera and Diabrotica balteata

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 8561-8572, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are key biological control agents in agriculture, but their direct effects on plant metabolism and resistance to herbivory remain underexplored. By combining transcriptomic, metabolomic, and herbivore assays, this study aimed at providing a holistic description of maize root responses to EPNs and to assess ...

Tight Physical Linkage of the Nematode Resistance Gene Gpa2 and the Virus Resistance Gene Rx on a Single Segment Introgressed from the Wild Species Solanum tuberosum subsp. andigena CPC 1673 into Cultivated Potato

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
Comparative mapping studies within several plant genera have shown that genes for resistance to taxonomically diverse pathogens are often co-localized on the maps of these genotypes.
