Staying ahead of the arms race against rust and mildew diseases in cereal crops is essential
to maintain and preserve food security. The methodological challenges associated with …

Membrane trafficking pathways play a prominent role in plant immunity. The endomembrane
transport system coordinates membrane-bound cellular organelles to ensure that …

Exocytosis plays an important role in plant–microbe interactions, in both pathogenesis and
symbiosis. Exo70 proteins are integral components of the exocyst, an octameric complex …

Plant nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLRs) immune receptors directly or indirectly
recognize pathogen-secreted effector molecules to initiate plant defense. Recognition of …

Tethering complexes mediate vesicle–target compartment contact. Octameric complex
exocyst initiate vesicle exocytosis at specific cytoplasmic membrane domains. Plant exocyst …

Exocyst component of 70-kDa (EXO70) proteins are constituents of the exocyst complex
implicated in vesicle tethering during exocytosis. MILDEW RESISTANCE LOCUS O (MLO) …

Exocytosis is a conserved trafficking pathway that transports secretory vesicles to the
extracellular space, replenishes the plasma membrane and is essential for establishing cell …

Cereal rust diseases, including leaf, stem, and stripe rust, are some of the most devastating
and economically important diseases of barley. However, host–pathogen genetic interaction …

Filamentous plant pathogens deliver effector proteins into host cells to suppress host
defence responses and manipulate metabolic processes to support colonization …

Plant diseases caused by pathogens and pests lead to crop losses, posing a threat to global
food security. The secretory pathway is an integral component of plant defense. The exocyst …
