Abstract:Plants utilise cell surface pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and intracellular nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat containing receptors (NLRs) to fend off invading pathogens. Although PRR-and NLR-triggered immunity are generally thought to activate distinct pathways, they can induce similar outputs. However, whether these two pathways converge at some point to potentiate and strengthen the immune response remains unclear. For instance, the extent to which the tomato NLR helper NRC4 is implicated … Show more
