This study identifies three susceptibility genes in cauliflower that contribute to disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris through Tal12a-mediated transcriptional changes.

The paper traces the evolutionary history of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in Africa, showing its adaptation to African rice and how the introduction of Asian rice shaped its population structure.

This study traces the evolutionary history and dispersal of the rice bacterial blight pathogen Xoo, linking its emergence to rice domestication and trade routes.

The paper shows that pre-loaded Ago2-miRISC targets RhoGDIα to facilitate Shigella-induced vacuolar rupture.

This study shows that extracellular small RNAs from plants direct gene silencing in a plant-interacting bacterium, revealing a novel mechanism of bacterial gene regulation.

The paper identifies a novel class of sRNAs in rice induced by bacterial infection, which may play a role in plant-microbe interactions.
