Balance Under Stress: A Case of Mixed Signals
Blog, Plant Physiology, Plant Physiology: News and Views, ResearchPlants may appear to be sitting ducks to whatever pest, pathogen or bad weather assaults them, but they are far from defenseless. In fact, plants are artful masters of war, armed with elaborate physical and chemical defense systems. But, in many cases, optimizing growth and defense is like running a…
Resistance on Tap: PDR Transporters Direct Antimicrobial Metabolites Towards Invading Pathogens
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefIn Arabidopsis thaliana and related species within the Mustard family (Brassicaceae), the tryptophan (trp)-derived antimicrobial metabolite camalexin (3-thiazol-2-yl-indole) plays a central role in defense against bacterial, fungal, and oomycete pathogens. Upon pathogen attack, cytochrome P450 monooxygenases…

Review: Sulfated plant peptide hormones (J. Exp. Bot)
Plant Science Research WeeklyIt’s hard to believe that when I was a student we were taught that “plants don’t have peptide hormones”. Since then we’ve discovered many diverse families of plant peptide hormones (see the Teaching Tool on peptide hormones for an excellent overview). Here, Kaufmann and Sauter review one family,…
