Targeting of the barley cell-surface receptor SRF3 by the Blumeria hordei effector AVRA13 overlaps with AVRA13 recognition by MLA and the induction of NLR-mediated cell death.

Wei Shi, Merle Bilstein-Schloemer, Sara Christina Stolze…·Isabel M. L. Saur

The paper identifies AVRA13's interaction with SRF3 in barley and shows its role in manipulating iron homeostasis to promote fungal growth, while also revealing MLA's detection of AVRA13's virulence features.

Divergent functions of three Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) proteins in herbivore defense in poplar

Ishani S. Das, Qianqian Shi, Steven Dreischhoff, Andrea Polle

This study identifies three Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI) proteins in poplar with divergent roles in herbivore defense, showing that KTI_400 and KTI_600 reduce herbivore growth while KTI_53200 has no effect.
