This study identifies T2S-secreted effectors in Xanthomonas species and shows their roles in plant cell wall remodeling and nutrient utilization across different pathovars.

This study shows that endogenous RALF peptides, perceived by FER and LLG-LRX complexes, are required for powdery mildew colonization of Arabidopsis, with RALF function influencing cell wall remodeling and apoplastic pH.

This paper identifies a RALF-Brassinosteroid signaling circuit that regulates Arabidopsis hypocotyl cell shape by linking cell wall status to BR signaling through RALF23.

This study shows that galactose is reversibly released from Arabidopsis cell walls during carbon starvation, compromising fungal resistance while providing metabolic resources.

This paper identifies specific β-1,2-glucans that trigger immune responses and disease resistance in plants by enhancing ROS production and defense gene expression in Arabidopsis and other crops.
