Published: November 2012

Brassinosteroid (BR) signaling, plant innate immunity, and stomatal developments are three pathways that are initiated by receptor-like kinases. This commentary focuses on the latest findings in the role of BR signaling in plant immunity and stomatal development that provide some insight into the molecular mechanism of the BR signal pathway interacting with other receptor signaling pathways.

Plant stomata open in response to blue light, allowing gas exchange and water transpiration. However, open stomata are potential entry points for pathogens. Whether plants can sense pathogens and mount defense responses upon stomatal opening and how blue-light cues are integrated to balance growth-defense trade-offs are poorly characterized.

Background: Rice is the main food crop for much of the population in China. Therefore, selecting and breeding new disease resistance and drought tolerance in rice is essential to ensure national food security. The utilization of heterosis has significantly enhanced rice productivity, yet many of the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain largely unexplored.

Xanthomonas fragariae (Xaf) is the cause of strawberry crown dry cavity rot and strawberry leaf angular spots. Despite having a long evolutionary history with strawberries, the plant-pathogen interaction is poorly understood. Pathogenicity for most plant pathogens is mostly dependent on the type-III secretion system, which introduces virulence type III effectors (T3Es) into eukaryotic host cells.

Understanding the genomic basis of natural variation in plant pest resistance is an important goal in plant science, but it usually requires large and labor-intensive phenotyping experiments. Here, we explored the possibility that non-target reads from plant DNA sequencing can serve as phenotyping proxies for addressing such questions. We used data from a whole-genome and -epigenome sequencing study of 207 natural lines of field pennycress () that were grown in a common environment and spontaneously colonized by aphids, mildew, and other microbes.
