Yesterday we had Thomas Kroj here for our regular #PlantScience Lecture. Fantastic talk on his teams recent advances in understanding the effector-repertoire of #Magnaporthe oryzae, as well as NLR-design work. Can you spot the tribute to the Town he started his PhD in on slide 2? 🙂 #PlantImmunity

Winding down my #Fusarium #SpatialImmunity Project, which I started 5 years ago in 🇦🇺. 😥 In 🇦🇺 I created >850 plant lines for the project (which FedEx lost, recovered, 2xflew back-n-forth 🇦🇺/🇩🇪), in my 2 years @mpipz.bsky.social I added another 500 lines. Mostly fluorescent markers for #PlantImmunity.

The two #systemin #peptide #receptors in tomatoes have opposite functions. While SYR1 activates systemin-induced #immune responses, SYR2 acts as an antagonist. Wounding preferentially induces the expression of SYR2 that attenuates immune responses by outcompeting SYR1 for binding with the co-receptor SERK3a
