Plant-associated microbiota can extend plant immune system function, improve nutrient
acquisition and availability, and alleviate abiotic stresses. Thus, naturally beneficial …

The regulation of stomatal aperture opening and closure represents an evolutionary battle
between plants and pathogens, characterized by adaptive strategies that influence both …

Plant roots exhibit localized immunity (LI) mainly in the transition zone (TZ) and elongation
zone (EZ). Plasma membrane-localized receptor-like kinases (RLKs) can mediate the plant's …

Globally kelp farming is gaining attention to mitigate land-use pressures and achieve carbon
neutrality. However, the influence of environmental perturbations on kelp farming remains …

The ability of plants to perceive and react to biotic and abiotic stresses is critical for their
health. We recently identified a core set of genes consistently induced by members of the …

In nature, plants are constantly colonized by a massive diversity of microbes engaged in
mutualistic, pathogenic or commensal relationships with the host. Molecular patterns present …

Stressed organisms identify intracellular molecules released from damaged cells due to
trauma or pathogen infection as components of the innate immune response. These …

Pseudomonas syringae pv. aptata is a member of the sugar beet pathobiome and the
causative agent of leaf spot disease. Like many pathogenic bacteria, P. syringae relies on …

Magnaporthe oryzae is one of the most important fungal pathogens of rice. Chitin and
avirulent strains can induce two layers of immunity response, pathogen-associated …

Abstract The Arabidopsis thaliana FLAGELLIN-SENSITIVE2 (FLS2), a typical receptor
kinase, recognizes the conserved 22 amino acid sequence in the N-terminal region of …
