This study uses multi-omics approaches to show that barley responds to Fusarium infection by upregulating aromatic amino acid-derived defense compounds.

The paper examines how drought stress and Fusarium infection interact to affect Fusarium Head Blight susceptibility in barley, finding that drought increases disease severity in moderately resistant genotypes but not in highly susceptible ones.

The paper combines network inference and motif enrichment to identify transcription factors controlling stress responses in barley under drought and Fusarium head blight.

This study engineers pattern recognition receptors to enhance broad-spectrum resistance in plants, showing improved efficacy in tomato, rice, and poplar.

The paper uses a multi-omics approach to classify Arabidopsis thaliana RLPs into functional classes and identifies differences in abundance, genome clustering, and interaction partners.
