The plant's innate immune system detects potential biotic threats through recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors (PRR). A central regulator of pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) is the BRI1-associated kinase 1 (BAK1), which

The vegetative development of plants is strongly dependent on the action of phytohormones. For over a century, the effects of ethylene on plants have been studied, illustrating the profound impact of this gaseous hormone on plant growth, development and stress
Catharina Merchante et al.
Current opinion in plant biology, 16(5), 554-560 (2013-09-10)
The hormone ethylene plays numerous roles in plant development. In the last few years the model of ethylene signaling has evolved from an initially largely linear route to a much more complex pathway with multiple feedback loops. Identification of key
Simona M Cristescu et al.
Annals of botany, 111(3), 347-360 (2012-12-18)
In view of ethylene's critical developmental and physiological roles the gaseous hormone remains an active research topic for plant biologists. Progress has been made to understand the ethylene biosynthesis pathway and the mechanisms of perception and action. Still numerous questions
