The plant immune system is well equipped to ward off the attacks of different types of
phytopathogens. It primarily relies on two types of immune sensors—plasma membrane …

Plant intracellular nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat immune receptors (NLRs)
perceive the activity of pathogen‐secreted effector molecules that, when undetected …

The nucleocytoplasmic exchange is of fundamental importance to eukaryotic life and is
mediated by karyopherins, a superfamily of nuclear transport receptors. However, the …

The interaction between chromatin and the nuclear lamina (NL) is intrinsically important to
the establishment of three-dimensional chromatin architecture and spatiotemporal …

Upon pathogen challenge, plant cells can mount defense not only by triggering programmed
cell death (PCD) to limit pathogen growth, but also by secreting immune signals to activate …

Background The chlorophyll content (CC) is a key factor affecting maize photosynthetic
efficiency and the final yield. However, its genetic basis remains unclear. The development …

In plant–microbe interactions, symbionts and pathogens live within plants and attempt to
avoid triggering plant defense responses. In order to do so, these microbes have evolved …

Plants often utilize nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins to perceive
pathogen infections and trigger a hypersensitive response (HR). The endosomal sorting …

Biomolecular condensates are dynamic nonmembranous structures that seclude and
concentrate molecules involved in related biochemical and molecular processes. Recent …

In eukaryotes, the nucleus is the regulatory center of cytogenetics and metabolism, and it is
critical for fundamental biological processes, including DNA replication and transcription …
