Gb3 encodes an intracellular kinase–pseudokinase protein with a unique MAP3K-like domain that confers resistance to multiple greenbug biotypes in wheat.

Tom Calver has sacrificed milk yields to give his cows a more varied diet of plants and believes the result is better cheese and richer farmland

A UK-led research collaboration has taken a significant step in the global effort to protect cereal crops from the devastating blast fungus pathogen...

Decoding the molecular and cellular basis of plant-microbe interactions. Single-cell and spatial omics of plant immunity. Led by Tatsuya Nobori at TSL, Norwich, UK.

Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) are conserved molecular switches that regulate innate immunity across diverse domains of life. While best known for their roles in i...

Probabilistic sequence encoding from language model embeddings within a generative AI framework enables protein miniaturization, modification and augmentation while maintaining native architecture and functional integrity.

It’s bad for your brain and worse for democracy.

What makes a plant killer lose its edge? This project will investigate why fungal pathogens lose virulence when they are grown in laboratory culture away from their host plant. Use cutting-edge…

I wanted to like QED's new 1% ranking. I don't.

Engineering the barley NLR RGH2 enhances recognition of blast pathogen effectors from rice and wheat, leading to improved disease resistance.

Plants and animals respond to pathogen attack by mounting innate immune responses that require intracellular nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins. These immune receptors detect pathog...
