Great work led by our colleagues at the University of Salamanca, exploring structural variation, dynamic minichromosomes and pseudogenization in Colletotrichum graminicola!
👏 Congrats to the team!

How is AI helping plants fight against parasitic worms? 🌱
Plant-parasitic nematodes cost crops billions of pounds every year, and screening for resistance has been notoriously slow.
@Seb_EvdA's team @CropSciCentre is using 3D-printed robots and AI to accelerate the search for genes that could make crops naturally resilient 👇

Beetles secrete jelly to embed & sustain symbionts with impossibly tiny genomes🪲
But what is this jelly made of? And how does it help maintain a partnership that has lasted over 62 million years?

Diverse haplotypes at a complex Solanum americanum locus confer resistance to Phytophthora infestans and P. capsici (Robert Heal , Andrea Carolina Olave-Achury , et al) doi.org/10.1093/plcell/koag2… @ASPB #PlantSci
Stripe rust is a devastating pathogen of graminaceous #crops. Here, Wang et al. identify the S-like RNase TaRNS4 that positively regulates #wheat resistance to stripe rust by degrading the #RNA of Puccinia striiformis.

ALT Annotated flow diagram to illustrate how, in wheat, phosphorylation of the S-like RNase TaRNS4 mediated by the kinase TaRLK5 promotes its degradation of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici RNA in the apoplast, enhancing resistance to stripe rust. Also shown: how TaRNS4 can hijack phosphatase TaPP2C10 to relieve its dephosphorylation of TaMAPK6, thereby activating MAPK-mediated immune responses.
