Recent progress in large-scale sequencing, genomics, and rapid gene isolation techniques
has accelerated the identification of race-specific resistance (R) genes and their …

Nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) are intracellular plant immune
receptors that recognize pathogen effectors secreted into the plant cell. Canonical NLRs …

Globally, aphids cause immense economic damage to several crop plants. In addition,
aphids vector several plant viral diseases that accelerate crop yield losses. While feeding …

The location of the phloem deep inside the plant, the high hydrostatic pressure in the
phloem, and the composition of phloem sap, which is rich in sugar with a high C: N ratio …

Abstract Knowledge of plant recognition of insects is largely limited to a few resistance (R)
genes against sap‐sucking insects. Hypersensitive response (HR) characterizes monogenic …

The success of virus transmission by vectors relies on intricate trophic interactions between
three partners, the host plant, the virus, and the vector. Despite numerous studies that …

Resistance genes (R genes) are a class of genes that are immune to a wide range of
diseases and pests. In planta, NLR genes are essential components of the innate immune …

Highlights•After breeding success in resistance to aphids, resistance in tomato, melon, and
wheat was shown conferred by NLR genes.•Many other NLR resistances triggered by …

Aphids feeding on plants experience similar responses to pathogens due to the prolonged
and intimate contact with the plant. Diuraphis noxia is an economically important aphid pest …

Highlights•Bacteria associated with aphids enhance their virulence.•Non-coding elements
regulate host responses and promote aphid virulence.•Recent data suggests the …
