We compared genomes at every level, from the nucleotide to the chromosome, and from the single gene or TE to the whole proteome. The findings were almost too many for a single publication... almost. 😇 doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen…
Stay strong Popeye ;) Spinach downy mildew at @BS_PP! Thanks for the fantastic opportunity to present the @UU_Plants work on the spinach downy mildew.
For the last talk of the session, we'll hear from @MelMendel on 'Deciphering the role of effectors for the rapid evolution and breaking of host resistance in the obligate biotrophic spinach downy mildew Peronospora effusa'.

Our study on the regulation of the basal expression of the immune receptor genes in Arabidopsis via salicylic acid (SA) is now online. 🥳In this final version, we provide evidence for the role of Arabidopsis SA receptors in this process.

@Woolly_Thyme @guidopmi @sebtonn @ini_banales @UU_Plants
Activation of the plant immune system upregulates the expression of immune receptors, but regulation of their basal levels is poorly understood. Here, we find a crucial role of basal salicylic acid levels in this process:
