Plants can detect microbial molecules via surface-localized pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) and intracellular immune receptors from the nucleotide-binding, leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR) family. The corresponding pattern-triggered (PTI) and effector-triggered (ETI) immunity were long considered separate pathways, although they converge on largely similar cellular responses, such as calcium influx and overlapping gene reprogramming. A number of studies recently uncovered genetic and molecular interconnections between PTI and ETI, highlighting the complexity of the plant immune network. Notably, PRR- and NLR-mediated immune responses require and potentiate each other to reach an optimal immune output. How PTI and ETI connect to confer robust immunity in different plant species, including crops will be an exciting future research area.

Plant immunity involves a complex and finely tuned response to a wide variety of pathogens. Alternative splicing, a post-transcriptional mechanism that generates multiple transcripts from a single gene, enhances both the versatility and effectiveness of the plant immune system. Pathogen infection induces alternative splicing in numerous plant genes involved in the two primary layers of pathogen recognition: pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI).

Cotton is often threatened by Verticillium wilt caused by . Understanding the molecular mechanism of -cotton interaction is important for the prevention of this disease. To analyze the transcriptome profiles in and cotton simultaneously, the strongly pathogenic strain Vd592 was inoculated into cotton, and the infected cotton roots at 36 h and 3 d post infection were subjected to dual RNA-seq analysis.

Plants are equipped with multi-layered immune systems that recognize pathogen-derived elicitors to activate immunity. Verticillium dahliae is a soil-borne fungus that infects a broad range of plants and causes devastating wilt disease. The mechanisms underlying immune recognition between plants and V.

Lacking an adaptive immune system, plants rely on innate immunity comprising two main layers: PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI), both utilizing Ca influx and reactive oxygen species (ROS) for signaling. PTI, mediated by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), responds to conserved pathogen- or damage-associated molecular patterns. Some pathogens evade PTI using effectors, triggering plants to activate ETI.

Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae biovar 3 (Psa3) has decimated kiwifruit orchards growing susceptible kiwifruit Actinidia chinensis varieties. Effector loss has occurred recently in Psa3 isolates from resistant kiwifruit germplasm, resulting in strains capable of partially overcoming resistance present in kiwiberry vines (Actinidia arguta, Actinidia polygama, and Actinidia melanandra).
