Calcium ions (Ca ) are crucial intracellular second messengers in eukaryotic cells. Upon pathogen perception, plants generate a transient and rapid increase in cytoplasmic Ca levels, which is subsequently decoded by Ca sensors and effectors to activate downstream immune responses. The elevation of cytosolic Ca is commonly attributed to Ca influx mediated by plasma membrane-localized Ca -permeable channels. However, the contribution of Ca release triggered by intracellular Ca -permeable channels in shaping Ca signaling associated with plant immunity remains poorly understood. This review discusses recent advances in understanding the mechanism underlying the shaping of Ca signatures upon the activation of immune receptors, with particular emphasis on the identification of intracellular immune receptors as non-canonical Ca -permeable channels. We also discuss the involvement of Ca release from the endoplasmic reticulum in generating Ca signaling during plant immunity.

Nucleotide-binding and leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins are essential intracellular immune receptors in both animal and plant kingdoms. Sensing of pathogen-derived signals induces oligomerization of NLR proteins, culminating in the formation of higher-order protein complexes known as resistosomes in plants. The NLR resistosomes play a pivotal role in mediating the plant immune response against invading pathogens.

Epigenetic mechanisms are integral to plant growth, development, and adaptation to environmental stimuli. Over the past two decades, our comprehension of these complex regulatory processes has expanded remarkably, producing a substantial body of knowledge on both locus-specific mechanisms and genome-wide regulatory patterns. Studies initially grounded in the model plant Arabidopsis have been broadened to encompass a diverse array of crop species, revealing the multifaceted roles of epigenetics in physiological and agronomic traits.

Background: Plant breeding research heavily relies on wild species, which harbor valuable traits for modern agriculture. This work employed a new introgression population derived from Solanum pennellii (LA5240), a wild tomato native to Peru, composed of 1,900 genotyped backcross inbred lines (BILs_BC2S6) in the tomato inbreds LEA and TOP cultivated genetic backgrounds. This Peruvian accession was found resistant to the most threatening disease of tomatoes today, caused by the tobamovirus tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV).
