Emerging fungal and oomycete pathogens infect staple calorie crops and economically
important commodity crops, thereby posing a significant risk to global food security. Our …

Plants are in contact with diverse pathogens and microorganisms. Intense investigation over
the last 30 years has resulted in the identification of multiple immune receptors in model and …

Plant response to pathogen infection varies within a leaf, yet this heterogeneity is not well
resolved. We expose Arabidopsis to Pseudomonas syringae or mock treatment and profile> …

Yield losses caused by fungal pathogens represent a major threat to global food production.
One of the most devastating fungal wheat pathogens is Zymoseptoria tritici. Despite the …

Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the fungus Zymoseptoria tritici, is among the most
threatening wheat diseases in Europe. Genetic resistance remains one of the main …

Many filamentous plant pathogens exhibit high levels of genomic variability, yet the impact of
this variation on host–pathogen interactions is largely unknown. We have addressed host …

Over the past decades, rapid industrialization along with the overutilization of organic
pollutants/pesticides has altered the environmental circumstances. Moreover, various …

Background Wheat is one of the world's most important cereal crops. However, the fungal
pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici can cause disease epidemics, leading to reduced yields. With …

Epiphytic microbes are those that live for some or all of their life cycle on the surface of plant
leaves. Leaf surfaces are a topologically complex, physicochemically heterogeneous habitat …

In plants, antimicrobial immune responses involve the cellular release of anions and are
responsible for the closure of stomatal pores. Detection of microbe-associated molecular …
