RIN4 Interacts with Pseudomonas syringae Type III Effector Molecules and Is Required for RPM1-Mediated Resistance in Arabidopsis
TL;DR: In Arabidopsis, RPM1 confers resistance against Pseudomonas syringae expressing either of two sequence unrelated type III effectors, AvrRpm1 or AvrB, and RIN4 positively regulates RPM1-mediated resistance yet is, formally, a negative regulator of basal defense responses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recognition and Response in the Plant Immune System
TL;DR: Transduction of recognition probably requires regulated protein degradation and results in massive changes in cellular homeostasis, including a programmed cell death known as the hypersensitive response that indicates a successful, if perhaps over-zealous, disease resistance response.
Journal ArticleDOI
The disease resistance signaling components EDS1 and PAD4 are essential regulators of the cell death pathway controlled by LSD1 in Arabidopsis.
TL;DR: It is reported here that EDS1 and PAD4, two signaling genes that mediate some but not all R responses, also are required for runaway cell death in the lsd1 mutant, and it is demonstrated that the fate of superoxide at infection sites is different from that observed at the leading margins of runaway cellDeath lesions in lSD1 mutants.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Promiscuous Life of Plant NUCLEAR FACTOR Y Transcription Factors
Katia Petroni,Roderick W. Kumimoto,Nerina Gnesutta,V. Calvenzani,M. Fornari,Chiara Tonelli,Ben F. Holt,Roberto Mantovani +7 more
TL;DR: This work provides a comprehensive classification of NF-Y genes, with a separation of closely related, but distinct, histone fold domain proteins, and reviews recent experiments that have placed NF-y at the center of many developmental stress-responsive processes in the plant lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brachypodium as a Model for the Grasses: Today and the Future

TL;DR: The expanding adoption of Brachypodium as a model grass is outlined here and the development of genomic resources occurred concurrently with the generation of other experimental tools (e.g. highly efficient transformation and large collections of natural accessions).
