  3. Yesterday we had Thomas Kroj here for our regular #PlantScience Lecture. Fantastic talk on his teams recent advances in understanding the effector-repertoire of #Magnaporthe oryzae, as well as NLR-design work. Can you spot the tribute to the Town he started his PhD in on slide 2? 🙂 #PlantImmunity

  4. 📜 CEPR2 perceives group II CEPs to regulate cell surface immunity in Arabidopsis 🧑‍🔬 Jakub Rzemieniewski, Martin Stegmann, et al. 📔 @biorxiv-plants.bsky.social 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #️⃣ #PlantScience #PlantImmunity #PlantSignaling

  5. Winding down my #Fusarium #SpatialImmunity Project, which I started 5 years ago in 🇦🇺. 😥 In 🇦🇺 I created >850 plant lines for the project (which FedEx lost, recovered, 2xflew back-n-forth 🇦🇺/🇩🇪), in my 2 years @mpipz.bsky.social I added another 500 lines. Mostly fluorescent markers for #PlantImmunity.

  6. The February issue of JIPB features a plethora of #PlantScience, including three delicious #citrus papers on carotenoids, sugar accumulation, and evolution of a #papeda. Look inside this issue for exciting new papers on #PlantImmunity and #StressTolerance, innovative applications of #CRISPR/Cas and #BaseEditors, and more! #Botany #Horticulture jipb.net/EN/1672-9072/current.

  7. The two #systemin #peptide #receptors in tomatoes have opposite functions. While SYR1 activates systemin-induced #immune responses, SYR2 acts as an antagonist. Wounding preferentially induces the expression of SYR2 that attenuates immune responses by outcompeting SYR1 for binding with the co-receptor SERK3a

  9. How minimalist plant immune molecules become activated

    A groundbreaking study reveals how phase separation, akin to oil and water mixing, drives the activation of plant immune proteins, shedding light on their vital role in defending against infections. The findings uncover a fundamental mechanism for bolstering plant immunity, with implications for understanding broader immune system dynamics across species.

  10. Very happy to share our preprint on fishing for #plant targets of ADP-ribosylating bacterial type III #effectors - great team effort, 🙏 thanks to everyone involved! (finally incl. some halfway decent MS2 spectra of the modification, 9 years later...😉) #slowscience #plantscience #ADPribosylation #plantimmunity biologists.social/@biorxivprep

  11. According to a recent study by Hirofumi Nakagami at the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) played a crucial role in the adaptation of plants to land. PTI is present in all vascular plants, including crops, and could aid in the development of more resistant plant species. #PlantImmunity #CropResilience #MaxPlanckInstitute
