This study investigates how different photoperiods affect cotton growth and development by integrating physiological measurements and transcriptomics, revealing gene expression changes and regulatory pathways involved.

The paper examines immune response patterns of PRRs in tomato roots and leaves across developmental stages and species, finding developmental-specific PTI responses and unique PRR pathways.

This study identifies Mj-MSP18 as a nematode effector that disrupts plant immune signaling by interfering with BSK7/8-FLS2 interactions and reprograms transcriptional responses.

This study identifies Pic3 and Pic12 as PP2C phosphatases that negatively regulate tomato immunity against Pseudomonas syringae through flagellin-independent pathways.

This paper identifies Pic14 as a negative regulator of Pto/Prf-triggered immunity in tomato by inhibiting MAPK activation through dephosphorylation of Mkk2.

The paper analyzes natural variation in immune epitopes across bacterial genomes to reveal a mechanism of intrabacterial immune evasion.
