Controlling cell division plane orientation is essential for morphogenesis in multicellular organisms. In plant cells, the future cortical division plane is marked before mitotic entry by the preprophase band (PPB). Here, we characterized an (TON1 Recruiting Motif) mutant that impairs PPB formation but does not affect interphase microtubules.

- MAPKs are crucial for regulating immune responses in plants, particularly in Arabidopsis, where they are activated by microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) like flg22.
- A study showed that MPK3, MPK4, and MPK6 mutants impact a significant number of genes influenced by flg22, revealing MPK4's essential role in immune response regulation and discovering a negative role for MPK3.
- The findings emphasize the complex interplay among these three MAPKs in the plant immune signaling network, suggesting that they work together in distinct ways to manage immune responses.
Infections with Salmonella enterica belong to the most prominent causes of food poisoning and infected fruits and vegetables represent important vectors for salmonellosis. Recent evidence indicates that plants recognize S. enterica and raise defense responses.
