Studies focused solely on single organisms can fail to identify the networks underlying host–
pathogen gene-29 for-gene interactions. Here, we integrate genetic analyses of rice (Oryza …

Phytohormones are not only essential for plant growth and development but also play
central roles in triggering the plant immune signaling network. Historically, research aimed …

Large amounts of expression data dealing with biotic stresses in rice have been produced in
the past 5 years. Here, we extensively review approximately 70 publications and gather …

Plant immunity is activated upon pathogen perception and often affects growth and yield
when it is constitutively active. How plants fine-tune immune homeostasis in their natural …

Background R gene-mediated resistance is one of the most effective mechanisms of
immunity against pathogens in plants. To date some components that regulate the primary …

Key message Rice CC-type NLR XinN1, specifically induced by a PRR XA21, activates
defense pathways against Xoo. Abstract Plants have evolved two layers of immune systems …

Plants are constantly challenged by a wide range of pathogens and have therefore evolved
an array of mechanisms to defend against them. In response to these defense systems …

Plants face a relentless onslaught from a diverse array of pathogens in their natural
environment, to which they have evolved a myriad of strategies that unfold across various …

Plant's survival is under constant threat due to attacks by several pests and pathogens.
Being sessile, plants cannot evade such attacks but only protect themselves against these …

The blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, causes serious disease on a wide variety of grasses
including rice, wheat and barley. The recognition of pathogens is an amazing ability of …
