The paper identifies conserved sensor-helper NLR interfaces in the NRC immune receptor network and validates their role in immune activation through structural and functional studies.

AlphaFold 3 oligomer models separate paired plant NLRs: helpers score higher pTM and form funnel-shaped resistosomes unlike sensors, including some rice pairs lacking integrated-domain annotations.

The paper identifies a root-specific NLR gene cluster in tomato that confers resistance to nematodes and evolved from an ancient NRC network.

The paper analyzes NLR evolution in lettuce and related species, finding that sensor NLRs evolve faster than helper NLRs and that sensor diversification is linked to helper dependency.
