Rice blast pathogen effector AvrPib compromises disease resistance by targeting Raf‐like protein kinase OsMAPKKK72 to inhibit MAPK signaling Open
Phytopathogens, such as the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae , suppress plant immunity for reproduction by secreting effectors into plant cells. The M. oryzae effector AvrPib is known to be recognized by Pib, an intracellular nucleotid…

Loss of calcium-dependent protein kinases OsCPK5 and OsCPK13 leads to NLR-dependent resistance in rice Open
Calcium (Ca 2+ ) signaling plays a crucial role in plant immunity, regulating both pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) through cell-surface receptors and effector-triggered immunity (ETI) via intracellular nucleotide-binding, leucine-rich rep…

A wheat tandem kinase sensor activates an NLR helper to trigger immunity Open
Most plant resistance genes encode membrane-anchored receptor-like proteins or intracellular nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) receptors. In wheat and barley, tandem kinases (TKs) have emerged as a new class of resistance de…

CAMTA3 repressor destabilization triggers TIR domain protein TN2-mediated autoimmunity in the <i>Arabidopsis exo70B1</i> mutant Open
Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CPKs) can decode and translate intracellular calcium signals to induce plant immunity. Mutation of the exocyst subunit gene EXO70B1 causes autoimmunity that depends on CPK5 and the Toll/interleukin-1 rece…

BRASSINOSTEROID-SIGNALING KINASE1 modulates MAP KINASE15 phosphorylation to confer powdery mildew resistance in Arabidopsis Open
Perception of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by plant cell surface-localized pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) triggers the first line of plant innate immunity. In Arabidopsis thaliana, the receptor-like cytoplasmic kina…

The truncated TNL receptor TN2‐mediated immune responses require ADR1 function Open
SUMMARY The loss of function of exocyst subunit EXO70B1 leads to autoimmunity, which is dependent on TIR‐NBS2 (TN2), a truncated intracellular nucleotide‐binding and leucine‐rich repeat receptor (NLR). However, how TN2 triggers plant immun…

A Truncated TIR-NBS Protein TN10 Pairs with Two Clustered TIR-NBS-LRR Immune Receptors and Contributes to Plant Immunity in Arabidopsis Open
The encoding genes of plant intracellular nucleotide-binding site (NBS) and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain receptors (NLRs) often exist in the form of a gene cluster. Several recent studies demonstrated that the truncated Toll/interleuki…

Co-expression of Multiple Chimeric Fluorescent Fusion Proteins in an Efficient Way in Plants Open
Information about the spatiotemporal subcellular localization(s) of a protein is critical to understand its physiological functions in cells. Fluorescent proteins and generation of fluorescent fusion proteins have been wildly used as an ef…

Once for All: A Novel Robust System for Co-expression of Multiple Chimeric Fluorescent Fusion Proteins in Plants Open
Chimeric fluorescent fusion proteins have been employed as a powerful tool to reveal the subcellular localizations and dynamics of proteins in living cells. Co-expression of a fluorescent fusion protein with well-known organelle markers in…
