Pangenome analyses of 133 wild accessions of the model bryophyte Marchantia polymorpha identify adaptive features and provide insights into the mechanisms of plant adaptation to the terrestrial enviro...

The trichothecene mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) dampens host immune responses and facilitates cell-to-cell invasion through plasmodesmatal pit fields in wheat floral tissues.

A specific gene appears to protect some fungal threats as they invade wheat. Disarming these defences could offer a pathway to keeping pathogens in check

Recent advances in genomics technologies have revolutionized our understanding of cereal rust fungi, providing unprecedented insights into the complexities of their sexual life cycle. Genomic approach...

Comprehensive maps of functional variation at transcription factor (TF) binding sites ( cis -elements) are crucial for elucidating how genotype shapes phenotype. Here we report the construction of a p...

Plants use NLR immune receptors, which often require downstream "helper" NLRs, for pathogen defense. This study identifies and structurally characterizes the mechanisms of NLR activation, showing that...

The authors identified a specific Arabidopsis ligand–receptor module as a central hub connecting cell wall integrity sensing with pattern-triggered immunity through transcriptional reprogramming.
