Plant immunity

Allocation and regulatory conflicts between growth and defence; the sign and magnitude of the relationship depend on environment and genotype.

A component of a plant immune signaling pathway whose evolutionary conservation and loss are coupled to other pathway members.

A component of a plant immune signaling pathway whose evolutionary conservation and loss are coupled to other pathway members.

A deleterious hybrid phenotype that can arise from incompatible immune-gene interactions and inappropriate defence activation.

A host resistance and pathogen avirulence specificity relationship; it is not the complete architecture of all plant disease resistance.

An intracellular immune receptor class in plants, commonly shortened to NLR.

The species-wide collection of NLR genes and alleles across accessions, rather than the inventory in a single reference genome.

A genomic group of related receptor genes shaped by duplication, deletion and sequence exchange; not every NLR is clustered.

A domain incorporated into an immune receptor that mimics an effector target and links its perturbation to immune recognition.

Functionally coupled receptors whose sensor and signaling activities may be partitioned between two genes. Physical linkage can help preserve their compatible inheritance.

An Arabidopsis thaliana paired immune-receptor example associated with a WRKY integrated domain in RRS1.

A receptor recognizing conserved microbial or damage-associated molecular patterns.

A host gene contributing to reduced disease; not all resistance genes encode NLR receptors.
