A conserved COBL3-like protein promotes PDLP5-dependent callose accumulation to confer broad-spectrum plasmodesmata-mediated antiviral defense.

This study reveals a previously unknown role of COBRA-like proteins in PMAD and provides insight into how a plant viral MP sabotages PMAD through perturbing COBL3-PDLP5 interaction to facilitate virus spread through PD.

The Small GTPase RHO1 Regulates ROS Homeostasis and Differentially Responds to Pathogens Infection via Interaction With Aquaporin TIP1;1 in Nicotiana

A mechanism by which the small GTPase RHO1 regulates ROS compartmentalization to affect the plant response to different pathogen infections is demonstrated, indicating the diversity of responses of a plant gene to different biotic factors.

A built-in brake for plant immunity: Resistance (R) protein–mediated immunity is fine-tuned by R gene analogs

It is proposed that this endogenous regulation balances the intensity of R8-mediated immunity, likely reducing selection pressure on the pathogen population and prolonging resistance durability, providing a conceptual framework for durable resistance breeding.

Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus C4 Suppresses Antiviral Immunity by Targeting the 14‐3‐3 Protein SlTFT2

It is established that the C4–SlTFT2 interaction is indispensable for TYLCV‐mediated immunosuppression, and C4 promotes successful TYLCV infection by reducing the nuclear accumulation of SlTFT2 through this interaction, revealing a novel mechanism by which the virus subverts host defence by targeting a 14‐3‐3 protein.

The tomato cytoplasmic receptor-like kinase TPK09 mediates resistance to Botrytis cinerea and tolerance to light-induced stress

Abstract Plant responses to pathogens often rely on receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) that mediate signaling through interactions with receptor kinases and downstream components. Here, we studied the tomato RLCK, TPK1b Related Protein Kinase (TPK09), and demonstrate its function in integrating defense with ligh...
