We demonstrate genetic variation for quantitative resistance against important fungal pathogens in lettuce and its wild relatives, map loci conferring resistance and predict key molecular mechanisms using transcriptome profiling. Lactuca sativa L. (lettuce) is an important leafy vegetable crop grown and consumed globally.

Article Synopsis
  • * Manipulations showed that the centrosomes can move back together after separation, and this movement is guided by microtubule and actin polymerization, forming structures that interact with the centrosomes.
  • * Disrupting the interactions between the LINC complex and perinuclear actin leads to positioning failures of the centrosomes, resulting in errors during chromosome segregation, highlighting how the nucleus helps orient spindle poles before cell division.
