Roots shaping their microbiome: global hotspots for microbial activity.

TL;DR: A three-step enrichment model for shifts in community structure from bulk soil toward roots, based on comparison of microbiome data for the different root-soil compartments and on knowledge of bacterial functions, is presented.

In Posidonia oceanica cadmium induces changes in DNA methylation and chromatin patterning

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that Cd perturbs the DNA methylation status through the involvement of a specific methyltransferase, linked to nuclear chromatin reconfiguration likely to establish a new balance of expressed/repressed chromatin.

The xylem as battleground for plant hosts and vascular wilt pathogens.

TL;DR: This review discusses the current knowledge on interactions of vascular wilt pathogens with their host plants, with emphasis on host defense responses against this group of pathogens.

Plant Innate Immunity: Perception of Conserved Microbial Signatures

TL;DR: In plants, coregulatory receptor kinases have been identified that not only are critical for the innate immune response but also serve an essential function in other regulatory signaling pathways.

Novel insights into rice innate immunity against bacterial and fungal pathogens.

TL;DR: This review summarizes the recent progress toward understanding the recognition and signaling events that govern rice innate immunity and some of the new findings are being used for the development of effective disease control methods and genome modification tools.

The innate immune response to bacterial flagellin is mediated by Toll-like receptor 5.

TL;DR: It is reported that mammalian TLR5 recognizes bacterial flagellin from both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and that activation of the receptor mobilizes the nuclear factor NF-κB and stimulates tumour necrosis factor-α production, and the data suggest thatTLR5, a member of the evolutionarily conserved Toll-like receptor family, has evolved to permit mammals specifically to detect flageLLated bacterial pathogens.

Significance of Inducible Defense-related Proteins in Infected Plants

TL;DR: The evolutionary conservation of similar defense-related proteins in monocots and dicots, but also their divergent occurrence in other conditions, suggest that these proteins serve essential functions in plant life, whether in defense or not.

Systemic acquired resistance

TL;DR: A model describing the sequence of events leading from initial infection to the induction of defense genes is presented and exciting new data suggest that the mobile signal for SAR might be a lipid molecule.

Plant immunity: towards an integrated view of plant―pathogen interactions

TL;DR: The recent convergence of molecular studies of plant immunity and pathogen infection strategies is revealing an integrated picture of the plant–pathogen interaction from the perspective of both organisms, suggesting novel biotechnological approaches to crop protection.

A Simple Cipher Governs DNA Recognition by TAL Effectors

TL;DR: It is shown that a repeat-variable pair of residues specifies the nucleotides in the target site, one pair to one nucleotide, with no apparent context dependence, which represents a previously unknown mechanism for protein-DNA recognition that explains TAL effector specificity, enables target site prediction, and opens prospects for use of TAL effects in research and biotechnology.
