Engineering the plant intracellular immune receptor Sr50 to restore recognition of the AvrSr50 escape mutant.

Sr50, an intracellular nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR), confers resistance of wheat against stem rust caused by the fungal pathogen f. sp. .

Characterization of the ZCTs, a subgroup of Cys2-His2 zinc finger transcription factors regulating alkaloid biosynthesis in Catharanthus roseus.

The C. roseus ZCTs are jasmonate-responsive, can be induced by CrMYC2a, and can act as significant regulators of the terpenoid indole alkaloid pathway when highly expressed. Catharanthus roseus is the sole known producer of the anti-cancer terpenoid indole alkaloids (TIAs), vinblastine and vincristine.
