The paper predicts structures of rapidly evolving aphid effector proteins using Alphafold2 with custom multiple sequence alignments, revealing saposin-like folds and structural diversity.

This paper shows CathB6 suppresses EDS1-dependent immunity and rewires MORF2-GUN1-GLK signaling to maintain cellular homeostasis in Arabidopsis during aphid feeding.

This study identifies RNA editing as a mechanism enabling the green peach aphid to adapt to diverse hosts through transcriptomic changes without genetic variation.

This study compares transcriptional plasticity in generalist and specialist aphids in response to different host plants, finding divergent gene expression patterns and differential effects of plant defense signals.

This study identifies and characterizes a diverse set of effector proteins in phytoplasmas, revealing mechanisms of molecular innovation despite genomic constraints.

The paper sequenced genomes of two invasive adelgid species to identify potential targets for selective insecticides through comparative analysis and virtual screening.

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.

This study shows aphid effector proteins recruit plant immune regulators to processing bodies, suppressing defenses, while a plant protein counteracts this effect.

This study presents chromosome-level genome assemblies for three psyllid species that transmit Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum, revealing gene expansions and population substructure in Dyspersa apicalis.

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

This paper shows how a parasite effector protein manipulates host developmental processes by hijacking a ubiquitin receptor to induce phenotypic changes.
