"Fight-or-flight" is not an option for plants, unfortunately, when it comes to pathogen attacks. Instead, plants opt for "do-or-die." A deeper insight into the genetic mechanisms that enable plants to ...

Plant pests such as bacteria and fungi lead to significant yield losses in agriculture. In order to develop new strategies against such pathogens, understanding the plant's immune response is of ...

CHENNAI: Look at the leaves of plants and trees growing in areas near an open cast mine and chances are you would find fine ...

1 “The biogeography of this pathogen specifically is really important because there keep being new outbreaks which have led to epidemic situations all over the world,” said study coauthor Alexandra ...

Soybean growers across the globe face a silent but devastating threat: the soybean cyst nematode (SCN). This microscopic ...

Active host-pathogen interactions take place during infection of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Outcomes of these interactions determine the efficiency of viral infection and ...

The EPA has granted registration for the agricultural use of harpin, a Cornell-discovered protein that induces a plant to mobilize its own defenses against pathogens and insects; the protein also ...

People love the taste of sugar beets' primary byproduct: white sugar. Soilborne cyst nematodes—parasitic, microscopic ...
