Production, Signaling, and Scavenging Mechanisms of Reactive Oxygen Species in Fruit-Pathogen Interactions.
TL;DR: The role of ROS in fruit defense reactions against pathogens and in fungi pathogenicity during fruit–pathogen interaction is examined and the scavenging systems determining ROS homeostasis are focused on.

TL;DR: Plant innate immunity may comprise a continuum from non-host resistance involving the detection of general elicitors to host-specific resistance involving detection of specific elicitors by R proteins, suggesting the existence of both shared and unique features for the three branches of plant innate immunity.

Exploring Pathogenic Mechanisms of Botrytis cinerea Secretome under Different Ambient pH Based on Comparative Proteomic Analysis
TL;DR: Findings indicate that B. cinerea can adjust protein profile of secretome responding to different ambient pH values and provide evidence to deeply understand the complicated infecting mechanisms of B. Cinerea on a wide range of plant hosts.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis showed that Bcap8 has orthologs in many basidiomycetes but only few ascomycete including the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma harzanium and potential functions of the 14 APs in B. cinerea are discussed based on their sequence characteristics, phylogeny and predicted localization.

Functions of defense-related proteins and dehydrogenases in resistance response induced by salicylic acid in sweet cherry fruits at different maturity stages.
TL;DR: Findings indicated that younger sweet cherry fruits showed stronger resistance against pathogen invasion after SA treatment, and indicated that antioxidant proteins were involved in the resistance response of fruits at every maturity stage, while heat shock proteins and dehydrogenases might potentially act as factors only at later maturity stages.
