This study shows that LysM receptor-like kinases are essential for poplar to form ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with Laccaria bicolor and respond to related signals.

The paper identifies the structural basis for size-selective chitin perception in plants using structural analysis, biochemistry, and in planta studies.

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.

This study shows that LysM-RLKs in liverworts are involved in symbiosis and COs/LCOs perception, supporting their ancestral role in AM formation.

The paper shows that the LYR4 intracellular domain functions as a signaling scaffold in chitin-triggered immunity, independent of its phosphorylation activity.
