Cell-type-specific immune programs orchestrate spatial defense in the Arabidopsis leaf epidermis

|
By Jingpu Song, Yuhai Cui, Yangdou Wei, Mahsa Modareszadeh, Dinithi Kumarapeli, Wilson Andres Acosta
| Nature Verified
Abstract Sessile plants rely on individual cells to perceive pathogens and coordinate defense. Guard cells (GCs), best known for regulating stomatal aperture, have poorly understood intrinsic immune roles. Here, we integrate single-cell and spatial analyses of Arabidopsis thaliana leaves infected with diverse phytopathogens, combining live and fixed imaging of transgenic immune reporters with single cell transcriptomic data.

Inactivation of β-1,3-glucan synthase-like 5 confers broad-spectrum resistance to Plasmodiophora brassicae pathotypes in cruciferous plants - Nature Genetics

|
By Chuanji Zhao, Yuanyuan Zhang, Yangdou Wei, Shengyi Liu, Yupo Wu
| Nature Verified
Abstract Clubroot disease, caused by the obligate intracellular rhizarian protist Plasmodiophora brassicae, is devastating to cruciferous crops worldwide. Widespread field P. brassicae pathotypes frequently overcome the pathotype-specific resistance of modern varieties, posing a challenge for durable control of this disease.

Tracking the genome-wide occupancy of Arabidopsis LEAFY COTYLEDON1 in endosperm development - Communications Biology

|
By Jingpu Song, Xin Xie, Bianyun Yu, Daoquan Xiang, Yuhai Cui, Ioannis Mavraganis, Yangdou Wei
| Nature Verified
Abstract Endosperm development is crucial for embryo growth and seed maturation. LEAFY COTYLEDON1 (LEC1), expressed in both endosperm and embryo, serves as a key regulator of seed development, orchestrating processes such as embryogenesis and seed maturation. LEC1 expression in the endosperm is detectable within a day after fertilization, yet its specific regulatory networks and developmental functions in this tissue remain unclear.
