The paper uses yeast surface display to show that AtIGP1 recognizes laminaribiose but not longer MLG-derived oligosaccharides, and that this recognition triggers immune responses in planta.

This study identifies genetic loci associated with lignocellulosic recalcitrance in maize using GWAS on a diversity panel.

The paper associates natural variation in ZmPMI3 phosphomannose isomerase kinetics with differences in water-soluble carbohydrate content in mature maize stems.

The paper characterizes AfTFT1 as a fungal MLG synthase and identifies key structural determinants for MLG biosynthesis.

This study identifies a MYC2-dependent regulatory pathway that compensates for reduced xylan O-acetylation by altering xylan methylation patterns in Arabidopsis.

The paper constructs a chromosome-scale super-pangenome for the lichen genus Peltigera, revealing shared genomic features between pathogenic and mutualistic fungi.

This study identifies SiROCX as a transcription factor regulating a monocot-specific CAZyme program for host cell wall remodeling during fungal symbiosis.

This paper identifies a host-adapted enzymatic module in Serendipita indica that degrades acetylated xylan in monocot roots, enabling fungal colonization while suppressing immune responses.
