Aphid effector Mp10 balances immune suppression and defence activation through EDS1-dependent modulation of plant DAMP responses

Matteo Gravino, Sam T. Mugford, Daniela Pontiggia, Joshua Joyce, Claire Drurey, David C. Prince, Felice Cervone, Giulia De Lorenzo, Saskia A. Hogenhout

The paper identifies Mp10, an aphid effector, as a molecule that suppresses plant DAMP-induced immunity but also modulates EDS1-dependent defences to enhance aphid reproduction.

Berberine Bridge enzyme-like oxidases orchestrate homeostatic control and signaling of oligogalacturonides in defense and wounding

Ascenzo Salvati, Alessandra Diomaiuti, Federica Locci, Matteo Gravino, Giovanna Gramegna, Muhammad Ilyas, Manuel Benedetti, Sara Costantini, Monica De Caroli, Baptiste Castel, Jonathan D. G. Jones, Felice Cervone, Daniela Pontiggia, Giulia De Lorenzo

This study shows that OGOX enzymes regulate oligogalacturonide levels, affecting plant immunity and tissue repair by balancing active OGs and oxidized oxOGs.

The conserved aphid saliva chemosensory protein effector Mp10 targets plant AMSH deubiquitinases at cellular membranes to suppress pattern-triggered immunity

Matteo Gravino, Sam T. Mugford, Nathan Kreuter, Joshua Joyce, Christine Wilson, Adi Kliot, James Canham, Thomas C. Mathers, Claire Drurey, Abbas Maqbool, Carlo Martins, Gerhard Saalbach, Saskia A. Hogenhout

This study identifies Mp10, an aphid saliva CSP effector, which suppresses plant PTI by interacting with AMSH deubiquitinases and modulating PRR kinase trafficking.

An aphid host-responsive RNA transcript that migrates systemically in plants promotes aphid reproduction

Yazhou Chen, Archana Singh, Gemy Kaithakottil, Thomas C. Mathers, Matteo Gravino, Sam T. Mugford, Cock van Oosterhout, David Swarbreck, Saskia A. Hogenhout

The paper identifies an aphid gene family that translocates RNA into plants, promoting aphid reproduction and indicating cross-kingdom RNA deployment.
