Metabolic arms race between a plant and a fungal pathogen

Y. Liu, L. Mahdi, A. Porzel, P. Stark, D. Esposto, A. Scherr-Henning, U. Bathe, I. F. Acosta, A. Zuccaro, G. U. Balcke, A. F. Tissier

This study identifies a metabolite interaction between barley and the fungal pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana, revealing that plant-produced hordedanes both inhibit other fungi and promote pathogen growth.

A barley gene cluster for the biosynthesis of diterpenoid phytoalexins

Y. Liu, G. U. Balcke, A. Porzel, L. Mahdi, A. Scherr-Henning, U. Bathe, A. Zuccaro, A. F. Tissier

This paper identifies and characterizes a gene cluster in barley responsible for producing diterpenoid phytoalexins in response to fungal infection.

Fungi hijack a plant apoplastic endoglucanase to release a ROS scavenging β-glucan decasaccharide to subvert immune responses

B. Chandrasekar, A. Wanke, S. Wawra, P. Saake, L. Mahdi, N. Charura, M. Neidert, M. Malisic, M. Thiele, M. Dama, M. Pauly, A. Zuccaro

The paper identifies a fungal extracellular polysaccharide matrix component, β-1,3;1,6-glucan decasaccharide, released by a plant enzyme that suppresses plant immunity and enhances fungal colonization.

Plant mixed lineage kinase domain-like proteins limit biotrophic pathogen growth

L. Mahdi, M. Huang, X. Zhang, R. T. Nakano, L. B. Kopp, I. M. L. Saur, F. Jacob, V. Kovacova, D. Lapin, J. E. Parker, J. M. Murphy, K. Hofmann, P. Schulze-Lefert, J. Chai, T. Maekawa

The paper identifies a plant MLKL protein family structurally similar to vertebrate MLKL, which provides immunity against pathogens without inducing cell death.
