Transcriptional activation of plant immunity by salicylic acid.

It is shown that SA stabilizes the SA-binding domain of NPR1 and allosterically promotes its interaction with MED15A, a subunit of the Mediator complex, which provides a mechanistic resolution to the longstanding question of how SA promotes transcriptional activation during plant immune responses.

A vitamin B3–driven root bacterial metabolite primes systemic immunity in Arabidopsis

Vitamin B3 secreted by plant roots shapes the assembly of a functionally specialized root microbiota, which metabolizes VB3 into an immune-active signal that enhances plant disease resistance and activation of systemic plant immunity.

Synergistic transcriptional modules in Trichoderma asperellum enhance glutathione detoxification to counteract fungal pathogen toxins.

Trichoderma fungi are potent biocontrol agents. However, their defence mechanisms against pathogen-derived toxins remain poorly understood. We identified two synergistic transcription factor modules in T. asperellum that orchestrate the detoxification of cytotoxic secondary metabolites from the poplar blight pathogen A...

SOBIR1 Integrates Pathogen Recognition and Hormonal Metabolism in Nicotiana tabacum.

The receptor-like kinase SOBIR1 (SUPPRESSOR OF BIR1) is a core component of immune receptor complexes mediating plant responses to extracellular immunogenic signals. While its role in pattern-triggered immunity is well defined in model species, its broader physiological functions remain largely unexplored. Here, we gen...
