Despite being sessile organisms constantly exposed to potential pathogens and pests,
plants are surprisingly resilient to infections. Plants can detect invaders via the recognition of …

A key feature of innate immunity is the ability to recognize and respond to potential
pathogens in a highly sensitive and specific manner. In plants, the activation of pattern …

Plant diseases caused by pathogens and pests are a constant threat to global food security.
Direct crop losses and the measures used to control disease (eg application of pesticides) …

Leucine-rich repeat-receptor-like proteins (LRR-RLPs) are ubiquitous cell surface receptors
lacking a cytoplasmic signalling domain. For most of these LRR-RLPs, it remained enigmatic …

In plants and animals, innate immunity is triggered through pattern recognition receptors
(PRRs) in response to microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) to provide the first …

ABSTRACT WRKY proteins form a large family of plant transcription factors implicated in the
modulation of numerous biological processes, such as growth, development and responses …

The first active layer of plant innate immunity relies on the recognition by surface receptors of
molecules indicative of non-self or modified-self. The activation of pattern-recognition …

High temperature (HT), high humidity (HH), and pathogen infection often co-occur and
negatively affect plant growth. However, these stress factors and plant responses are …

The sessile plants have evolved a large number of receptor-like kinases (RLKs) and
receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) to modulate diverse biological processes …

Plasma membrane-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as FLAGELLIN
SENSING2 (FLS2), EF-TU RECEPTOR (EFR), and CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE1 …
