Open AccessA family of pathogen-induced cysteine-rich transmembrane proteins is involved in plant disease resistance
Overexpression of pathogen-induced cysteine-rich transmembrane proteins (PCMs) in Arabidopsis thaliana enhances resistance against biotrophic pathogens and stimulates hypocotyl growth, suggesting a potential role...

Open AccessPseudomonas simiae WCS417: star track of a model beneficial rhizobacterium
Since the 1980s, numerous mutualistic Pseudomonas spp. strains have been used in studies on the biology of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and their interactions with host plants. In 1988, a strain fr...

Open AccessCarbonic anhydrases CA1 and CA4 function in atmospheric CO2-modulated disease resistance
Carbonic anhydrases CA1 and CA4 attenuate plant immunity and can contribute to altered disease resistance levels in response to changing atmospheric CO2 conditions.

Johanna Westerdijk (1881–1961) – the impact of the grand lady of phytopathology in the Netherlands from 1917 to 2017
One century ago, on February 10, 1917, Johanna Westerdijk delivered her inaugural speech at Utrecht University entitled “New directions in phytopathological research”. By doing so, she became the very first fe...

Open AccessEffect of atmospheric CO2 on plant defense against leaf and root pathogens of Arabidopsis
Climate change and the associated increase in atmospheric CO2 levels may affect the severity of plant diseases and threaten future crop yields. Here, we compared responses of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana ...

Open AccessMining the natural genetic variation in Arabidopsis thaliana for adaptation to sequential abiotic and biotic stresses
In this genome-wide association study, we obtained novel insights into the genetic basis of the effect of herbivory or drought stress on the level of resistance against the fungus Botrytis cinerea.

Open AccessModulation of ethylene- and heat-controlled hyponastic leaf movement in Arabidopsis thaliana by the plant defence hormones jasmonate and salicylate
Upward leaf movement (hyponastic growth) is adopted by several plant species including Arabidopsis thaliana, as a mechanism to escape adverse growth conditions. Among the signals that trigger hyponastic growth ar...

Article
Open AccessSalicylate-mediated suppression of jasmonate-responsive gene expression in Arabidopsis is targeted downstream of the jasmonate biosynthesis pathway
Jasmonates (JAs) and salicylic acid (SA) are plant hormones that play pivotal roles in the regulation of induced defenses against microbial pathogens and insect herbivores. Their signaling pathways cross-commu...

Heritability Of Rhizobacteria-mediated Induced Systemic Resistance And Basal Resistance In Arabidopsis
Selected strains of non-pathogenic rhizobacteria have the ability to trigger an induced systemic resistance (ISR) response in plants. In Arabidopsis, rhizobacteria-mediated ISR has been extensively studied, us...

Rhizobacteria-mediated Induced Systemic Resistance: Triggering, Signalling and Expression
Selected strains of rhizosphere bacteria reduce disease by activating a resistance mechanism in the plant named rhizobacteria-mediated induced systemic resistance (ISR). Rhizobacteria-mediated ISR resembles pa...

Molecular aspects of the potato — Phytophthora infestans interaction
The fungal pathogenPhytophthora infestans is the causal organism of late blight, one of the most devastating diseases of potato. In the past, various aspects of the potato-P. infestans interaction have been studi...
