Effector-triggered stomatal immunity prevents leaf invasion by bacterial pathogens

Tamar V. Av‐Shalom, Yan Lai, Racquel A. Singh, Dora Yuping Wang, Reid Gohmann, David M. Mackey, Darrell Desveaux, David S. Guttman

This study shows that CAR1-mediated recognition of the effector AvrE1 enhances stomatal immunity in Arabidopsis, preventing P. syringae leaf invasion.

Defense-Suppressive Fragments of RIN4 generated by AvrRpt2 Participate in NDR1-dependent Activation of RPS2

Ahmed Jawaad Afzal, Maheen Alam, Jianhua Huang, Moneeza Akbar Agha, Luis da Cunha, Muneeza Iqbal Rai, Jibran Tahir, Anmbreen Jamroze, Jonathan D. G. Jones, David M. Mackey

The paper identifies non-membrane-tethered RIN4 fragments generated by AvrRpt2 that activate RPS2, requiring NDR1 and overcoming suppression by the membrane-tethered C-terminal fragment.
