Salicylic acid (SA) is an essential plant defense hormone that promotes immunity against
biotrophic and semibiotrophic pathogens. It plays crucial roles in basal defense and the …

Plants have both cell-surface and intracellular receptors to recognize diverse self-and non-
self molecules. Cell-surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) recognize extracellular …

NPR1 is a master regulator of the defence transcriptome induced by the plant immune signal
salicylic acid,,–. Despite the important role of NPR1 in plant immunity,–, understanding of its …

Highlights•Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant defense hormone with critical roles in PTI, ETI and
SAR.•Induction of SA synthesis is orchestrated via complex transcriptional regulation of …

Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant defense hormone required for immunity. Arabidopsis NPR1 and
NPR3/NPR4 were previously shown to bind SA and all three proteins were proposed as SA …

This article is part of the Distinguished Review Article Series in Conceptual and
Methodological Breakthroughs in Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions. Salicylic acid (SA) is …

The NONEXPRESSOR OF PATHOGENESIS-RELATED GENES 1 (NPR1) and related
NPR1-like proteins are a functionally similar, yet surprisingly diverse family of transcription …

Salicylic acid (SA) is a key plant hormone required for establishing resistance to many
pathogens. SA biosynthesis involves two main metabolic pathways with multiple steps: the …

It is an apparent conundrum how plants evolved effector-triggered immunity (ETI), involving
programmed cell death (PCD), as a major defence mechanism against biotrophic …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone that regulates many aspects of plant
growth and development, as well as resistance to (a) biotic stress. Efforts to identify SA …
