Transcriptional regulation is a central process in plant immunity. The induction or repression
of defense genes is orchestrated by signaling networks that are directed by plant hormones …

The evolution of land plants approximately 470 million years ago created a new adaptive
zone for natural enemies (attackers) of plants. In response to attack, plants evolved highly …

Plant neighbor detection and response strategies are important mediators of interactions
among species. Despite increasing knowledge of neighbor detection and response …

Rhizospheric plant–microbe interactions have dynamic importance in sustainable
agriculture systems that have a reduced reliance on agrochemicals. Rhizosphere signaling …

Plants abound with active ingredients. Among these natural constituents, allelochemicals
and signaling chemicals that are released into the environments play important roles in …

Plants rely on a variety of ways to protect themselves from being fed upon, including de novo
production of specific compounds such as those termed as phenolics. Phenolics are often …

Plant hormones play important roles in regulating developmental processes and signaling
networks involved in plant responses to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses …

Microorganisms are found everywhere, and they are closely associated with plants.
Because the establishment of any plant–microbe association involves chemical …

Despite significant advances in crop protection, plant diseases cause a 20% yield loss in
food and cash crops worldwide. Therefore, interactions between plants and pathogens have …

Callose deposition in Arabidopsis has emerged as a popular model system to quantify
activity of plant immunity. However, there has been a noticeable rise in contradicting reports …
