Plant disease resistance is the consequence of an innate defense mechanism mediated by Resistance (R) genes [1]. The conserved structure of one class of R protein is reminiscent of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and Nucleotide binding oligomerization domain (NOD) proteins-immune-response perception modules in animal cells [2, 3, and 4]. The Arabidopsis snc1 (suppressor of npr1-1, constitutive, 1) mutant contains a...
