The aerial portion of a plant, namely the leaf, is inhabited by pathogenic and non-pathogenic
microbes. The leaf's physical and chemical properties, combined with fluctuating and often …

Plants and pathogens constantly adapt to each other. As a consequence, many members of
the plant immune system, and especially the intracellular nucleotide-binding site leucine …

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world's most important non-cereal food crop, and the
vast majority of commercially grown cultivars are highly heterozygous tetraploids. Advances …

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) crops suffer severe losses
to late blight caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans. Solanum …

Potato is the most widely produced tuber crop worldwide. However, reconstructing the four
haplotypes of its autotetraploid genome remained an unsolved challenge. Here, we report …

Plants coordinately use cell‐surface and intracellular immune receptors to perceive
pathogens and mount an immune response. Intracellular events of pathogen recognition are …

Reference datasets are critical in computational biology. They help define canonical
biological features and are essential for benchmarking studies. Here, we describe a …

Nucleotide binding and leucine-rich repeat-containing receptors (NLRs) have a critical role
in plant immunity through direct or indirect recognition of pathogen effectors. Recent studies …

Plant diseases caused by diverse pathogens lead to a serious reduction in crop yield and
threaten food security worldwide. Genetic improvement of plant immunity is considered as …

Nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins are critical intracellular immune
receptors in both animals and plants. Perception of pathogen-derived or stress-associated …
