A conserved peptide pattern from a widespread microbial virulence factor triggers pattern-induced immunity in Arabidopsis.
Microbe- or host damage-derived patterns mediate activation of pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) in plants. Microbial virulence factor (effector)-triggered immunity (ETI) constitutes a second layer of plant protection against microbial attack. Various necrosis and ethylene-inducing peptide 1 (Nep1)-l...
