Arsenic Resistance Protein BcArs2 Modulates Endogenous ROS Homeostasis in Infection Cushions to Enhance the Virulence of Botrytis cinerea Toward Host Plants
Botrytis cinerea triggers destructive grey mould with substantial economic losses, yet the functions of numerous pathogenicity genes remain largely unclear. Here, by screening a T‐DNA insertion library, we identified BcARS2 , a key compo...

Combinatorial cis ‐regulatory elements shape temporal effector expression in Ustilago maydis
Plant‐pathogenic fungi secrete small proteins, termed effectors, to reprogramme host metabolism and suppress immune responses during infection. Although transcriptional waves of effector expression have been described in several pathosys...

Lysin Motif Effectors Facilitate the Endophytic Colonization of Wheat by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum via Modulating Plant Immunity
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a necrotrophic fungus that causes severe plant diseases but can also colonize wheat as a symptomless endophyte. However, the mechanism by which its effector proteins regulate this dual lifestyle remains unclea...

A Csi‐ miR3954b ‐ CsCE70/CsPLA1 Regulatory Module Enhances Citrus Fruit Resistance to Penicillium digitatum by Promoting Phenolic Acid and Flavonoid Biosynthesis
Green mould is one of the major postharvest diseases affecting citrus. Although evidence indicates that microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in plant defence responses, their roles and regulatory mechanisms in citrus resistance to green mould ...

PmWRKY‐10 Enhances Pine Wilt Disease Resistance by Promoting Pinosylvin Monomethyl Ether Biosynthesis Through Transcriptional Activation of PmPMT2‐1
Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus ), poses a severe threat to global pine forests. Plants can enhance their resistance to external stresses by eliciting secondary metabolites; howe...

Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 8018 is Virulent Against Tobacco Cultivars N509 and Burley21 Due to Spontaneous Mutation in hopAZ1
The complete genome sequence of a relatively weak virulent tobacco pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci 8018 ( Pta 8018) was determined to elucidate key genetic elements that cause disease. Genome comparison of Pta 8018 to the previ...

Genome‐Wide Screening and Functional Verification of the Tobacco SGR Family Identify Transcription‐Factor‐Like NtSGRL as a Negative Regulator of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus Resistance
Viral infection often induces chlorosis, a symptom closely associated with chlorophyll (Chl) degradation. STAY‐GREEN (SGR) proteins are key regulators of Chl breakdown, but their roles in plant virus resistance remain poorly understood. ...

Suppression of ZmJAZ12 Expression Modulates Jasmonic Acid and Salicylic Acid Signalling and Enhances Maize Resistance to Southern Corn Rust
Southern corn rust (SCR), caused by the biotrophic fungus Puccinia polysora , severely threatens maize yield worldwide. In this study, we identified ZmJAZ12, a member of the JASMONATE ZIM‐domain (JAZ) protein family, as a negative regula...

Cucumber Mosaic Virus Promotes Sphingolipid Biosynthesis to Alleviate Host Unfolded Protein Response ( UPR )‐Mediated Immunity
RNA viruses usually reprogramme host cellular lipid metabolism to create favourable replication microenvironments, yet the broader biological significance of these lipid changes is largely unknown. To explore the potential roles of virus...
