PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin transporters are essential for plant development, relying on asymmetric localization at the plasma membrane. While the centr...

Abstract. C4 photosynthesis has emerged in various plant lineages as an adaptive response to abiotic stress, as it allows for higher photosynthetic efficie

The RING type ubiquitin ligase (E3), XBAT35.2, positively regulates FLS2-mediated plant immunity against bacterial pathogens by modifying the ESCRT-I subunits VPS28-2 and VPS37-1 with distinct ubiqui...

The gradual assembly and oligomerization of cell surface receptors are critical for regulating immune activation and turnover. Yet, how dynamic, spatiotemporally regulated assembly enables rapid and s...

Applications are invited for an Assistant or Associate Professorship in Pathogen Genetics to be held in the Department of Genetics. We are searching for a talented individual with a track record of fu...

Oxidative fragmentation of chloroplast lipids generates heptanedioic acid, a 7-carbon dicarboxylic acid that primes defense and systemic growth, highlighti

Abstract. Flooding is among the most devastating abiotic stresses limiting rice productivity. Although SUB1A introgression conferred submergence tolerance

Here the authors describe cell-type-specific responses of Arabidopsis seedlings to nine phytohormones. They characterize transcriptional crosstalk among them, and identify a guard-cell MYB60 module li...
