Plant Immunity: From Signaling to Epigenetic Control of Defense
Open accessAbstract
Pathogen recognition by plants results in the activation of signaling pathways that induce defense reactions. There is growing evidence indicating that epigenetic mechanisms directly participate in plant immune memory. Here, we discuss current knowledge of diverse epigenomic processes and elements, such as noncoding RNAs, DNA and RNA methylation, histone post-translational modifications, and chromatin remodeling, that have been associated with the regulation of immune responses in plants. Furthermore, we discuss the currently limited evidence of transgenerational inheritance of pathogen-induced defense priming, together with its potentials, challenges, and limitations for crop improvement and biotechnological applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
