Molecular Mimicry Enables Engineering of NLR Immune Receptors with Multi-Recognition.
Plants deploy intracellular nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) immune receptors to detect pathogen-secreted virulence effectors and trigger defense responses. NLRs recognize effectors from both adapted and non-adapted pathogens (Dong et al., 2025), either through direct binding or by monitoring effector-induc...
