Gene editing of the transmembrane kinase SOAK1 fine-tunes reactive oxygen species production for enhanced disease resistance in potato.

UvA-DARE (Digital Academic Repository) Dual phosphorylation of DGK5-mediated PA burst regulates ROS in plant immunity

A Ca2+ sensor-transcription factor cascade regulates cell-wall fortification and broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice.

Crop production is persistently threatened by a multitude of destructive diseases. In rice, the Ca2+ sensor RESISTANCE OF RICE TO DISEASES1 (ROD1) is a key regulator of defense against major pathogens, including those causing blast, sheath blight, and bacterial blight. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying ROD1-...

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.

The TaLYK5-TaDSK2a module serves as a molecular switch between plant growth and immunity during fungal attack.

It is demonstrated that the TaLYK5-TaDSK2a module functions as a molecular switch that dynamically regulates the trade-off between plant immunity and growth.

Unfolded Protein Response signaling restricts PTI and limits salicylic acid-dependent cell death under ER stress

The Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) maintains endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis during proteotoxic stress while also contributing to plant immunity. However, the functional relationship between UPR signaling, pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP)-triggered immunity (PTI) and salicylic acid (SA) remains poor...

A family of metabolite damage-control phosphatases modulates ROS-induced autophagy and plant stress resilience
