A claim-centred atlas distinguishes biological corroboration from analytical depth in plant stress transcriptomes

The paper reanalyzes plant stress transcriptomes to distinguish biological corroboration from analytical depth using a claim-centred atlas called PLEASE.

The first chromosome-scale genome assembly of Blumeria graminis f. sp. avenae provides insights into genome evolution and host specialization

The variable wheat stripe rust effector AvrYr7 evades Yr7 recognition through sequence and expression polymorphisms

The paper clones AvrYr7, an effector gene in wheat stripe rust, and identifies variants that evade recognition by the resistance gene Yr7 through sequence and expression differences.

Direct effector recognition by a tandem kinase triggers non-canonical immunity in wheat

The paper identifies a wheat resistance gene Lr41 that directly recognizes an effector AvrLr41 through its pseudokinase domain, revealing a non-canonical immune mechanism involving kinase-type receptors and helper proteins.

Genome structural plasticity and copy number dynamics shape adaptive evolution in a barley fungal pathogen

The paper presents a haplotype-resolved genome assembly of Puccinia hordei, revealing structural plasticity, copy number variation, and evolutionary dynamics in a barley fungal pathogen.

A new group of LysM-RLKs involved in symbiotic signal perception and arbuscular mycorrhiza establishment

The paper identifies a new group of LysM-RLK receptors that bind both LCO and CO, playing a complementary role with LYR-IA receptors in arbuscular mycorrhiza formation.
