Plants achieve an optimal balance between growth and defense by a fine-tuned
biosynthesis and metabolic inactivation of immune-stimulating small molecules. Recent …

Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant hormone almost exclusively associated with the promotion of
immunity. It is also known that SA has a negative impact on plant growth, yet only limited …

Rice plants contain high basal levels of salicylic acid (SA), but some of their functions remain
elusive. To elucidate the importance of SA homeostasis in rice immunity, we characterized …
