Plant immune receptors can sequester and protect host proteins from pathogen-promoted degradation

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/Letter to the editorAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

Genetically controlled broad-spectrum disease resistance is a highly desired trait for crop improvement. It allows to reduce the use of pesticides in the field and helps to streamline the development of new varieties. More than 100 loci are known to control the resistance of rice (Oryza sativa) to the devastating fungal blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae. Some of these loci are effective against a small set of pathogen isolates, while others protect against a broader range of pathogen variants (Ning et al., 2020).
