Pto evolved from malectin-like RLKs phosphorylates AvrPtoB to promote Prf-mediated immunity in Solanum pimpinellifolium

2026-08-24

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial speck, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), is a devastating disease of tomato that severely limits global tomato productivity. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying Pst and tomato is essential for developing disease resistant varieties. Here, we demonstrate that Pto, the first disease-resistance gene conferring recognition of a specific pathogen, phosphorylates Pst type III effec...
