Understanding the plant immune system is crucial for using genetics to protect crops from
diseases. Plants resist pathogens via a two-tiered innate immune detection-and-response …

Plants have both cell-surface and intracellular receptors to recognize diverse self-and non-
self molecules. Cell-surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize extracellular …

The plant immune system involves cell-surface receptors that detect intercellular pathogen-
derived molecules, and intracellular receptors that activate immunity upon detection of …

Nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) play important roles in the
innate immune systems of both plants and animals. Recent breakthroughs in NLR …

A protein domain (Toll and Interleukin-1 receptor [TIR]-like) with homology to animal TIRs
mediates immune signaling in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Here, we present an overview of …

In plants, nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat (NLR)-containing proteins can
form receptor networks to confer hypersensitive cell death and innate immunity. One class of …

N-hydroxypipecolic acid (NHP) accumulates in the plant foliage in response to a localized
microbial attack and induces systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in distant leaf tissue …

Plant leaf intercellular space provides a nutrient-rich and heterogeneous niche for microbes
that critically impacts plant health. However, how individual plant cells respond to …

To successfully colonise plants, pathogens must circumvent the plant immune system.
Intracellular immune receptors of the nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) class of …

Plants lack specialized and mobile immune cells. Consequently, any cell type that
encounters pathogens must mount immune responses and communicate with surrounding …
