Plant pathogenic viruses, bacteria, fungi and oomycetes cause destructive diseases in
natural habitats and agricultural settings, thereby threatening plant biodiversity and global …

During their lifetime, plants encounter numerous biotic and abiotic stresses with diverse
modes of attack. Phytohormones, including salicylic acid (SA), ethylene (ET), jasmonate …

Pseudomonas syringae is one of the most common plant pathogens that infect the
phyllosphere. P. syringae can live on the plant surface as an epiphyte. To cause disease, it …

In natural environments, plants are exposed to diverse microbiota that they interact with in
complex ways. While plant–pathogen interactions have been intensely studied to …

The plant hormone jasmonate coordinates immune and growth responses to increase plant
survival in unpredictable environments. The core jasmonate signaling pathway comprises …

The lipid-derived phytohormone jasmonate (JA) regulates plant growth, development,
secondary metabolism, defense against insect attack and pathogen infection, and tolerance …

Due to their different lifestyles, effective defence against biotrophic pathogens normally
leads to increased susceptibility to necrotrophs, and vice versa. Solving this trade‐off is a …

In nature, plants constantly have to face pathogen attacks. However, plant disease rarely
occurs due to efficient immune systems possessed by the host plants. Pathogens are …

Plant in vitro cultures represent an attractive and cost-effective alternative to classical
approaches to plant secondary metabolite (PSM) production (the “Plant Cell Factory” …

Growth–defense tradeoffs are thought to occur in plants due to resource restrictions, which
demand prioritization towards either growth or defense, depending on external and internal …
