Plants have evolved a repertoire of monitoring systems to sense plant morphogenesis and
to face environmental changes and threats caused by different attackers. These systems …

Cell walls are highly dynamic structures that provide mechanical support for plant cells
during growth, development and adaptation to a changing environment. Thus, it is important …

In plants, perception of invading pathogens involves cell-surface immune receptor kinases.
Here, we report that the Arabidopsis SITE-1 PROTEASE (S1P) cleaves endogenous RAPID …

Plant cells are immobile; thus, plant growth and development depend on cell expansion
rather than cell migration. The molecular mechanism by which the plasma membrane …

As a universal process in multicellular organisms, including animals and plants, cells usually
emit danger signals when suffering from attacks of microbes and herbivores, or physical …

Danger signals trigger immune responses upon perception by a complex surveillance
system. Such signals can originate from the infectious nonself or the damaged self, the latter …

The microbiome plays an important role in sha** plant growth and immunity, but few plant
genes and pathways impacting plant microbiome composition have been reported. In …

The perception and relay of cell-wall signals are critical for plants to regulate growth and
stress responses, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We found that the …

In field conditions, plants may experience numerous environmental stresses at any one time.
Research suggests that the plant response to multiple stresses is different from that for …

Pressurized cells with strong walls make up the hydrostatic skeleton of plants. Assembly and
expansion of such stressed walls depend on a family of secreted RAPID ALKALINIZATION …
