Article Synopsis
  • - The defense mechanisms in plants involve defense regulatory circuits, which can be activated differently depending on the type of pathogen and plant receptors present, with key enzymes being ALD1 and ICS1/SID2 that produce important metabolites for immunity.
  • - Mutants lacking ALD1 show reduced salicylic acid (SA) levels and susceptibility to pathogens under certain conditions, while ALD1 plays a crucial role in amplifying the SA-related defense responses.
  • - Experiments reveal that when plants infected with pathogens produce exudates, intact NRC1 and ICS1/SID2 are required for conveying immunity, highlighting the importance of these components for effective defense mechanisms during pathogen attack.

Epigenetic marks such as covalent histone modification and DNA methylation are crucial for mitotically and meiotically inherited cellular memory-based plant immunity. However, the roles of individual players in the epigenetic regulation of plant immunity are not fully understood. Here we reveal the functions of two homologs of human lysine-specific demethylase1-like1, LDL1 and LDL2, in the maintenance of methyl groups at lysine 4 of histone H3 and in plant immunity to infection.

Cyclic dipeptides (CDPs) are one of the simplest compounds produced by living organisms. Plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) also produce CDPs that can induce disease resistance. strain BS07 producing various CDPs has been evaluated as a potential biocontrol agent against multiple plant pathogens in chili pepper.
