The hypersensitive defence response is found in all higher plants and is characterized by a
rapid cell death at the point of pathogen ingress. It is usually associated with pathogen …

Potyviruses represent the largest group of known plant RNA viruses and include many

Summary GDP‐L‐galactose phosphorylase (VTC2) catalyses the conversion of GDP‐L‐
galactose to L‐galactose‐1‐P, a vital step of ascorbic acid (AsA) biosynthesis in plants. AsA …

Rye (Secale cereale), a valuable relative of wheat, contains abundant powdery mildew
resistance (Pm) genes. Using physical mapping, transcriptome sequencing, barley stripe …

The hypersensitive response (HR) is a robust immune response mediated by nucleotide‐
binding, leucine‐rich repeat receptors (NLRs). However, the early molecular event that links …

Plants possess hundreds of intracellular immune receptors encoding nucleotide‐binding
domain leucine‐rich repeat (NLR) proteins. Full‐length NLRs or a specific domain of NLRs …

Cell death is an important physiological phenomenon in life. It can be programmed or
unprogrammed. Unprogrammed cell death is usually induced by abiotic or biotic stress …

Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) are the most abundant type of
immune receptors in plants and can trigger a rapid cell-death (hypersensitive) response …
