🚨 New paper alert!

Our work is published in PNAS! @junli-wang.bsky.social @mpipz.bsky.social

In this study, we uncover how NLR-assembled and canonical Ca2+ ion channels cooperate to confer robust resistance against disease in plants.

Check it out here: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Great to see this really cool story (see quoted post) published in @newphyt.bsky.social!

Check out our new study! We show that Arabidopsis uses the EDS1-SAG101-NRG1 node to trigger rapid yet contained cell death. Key finding: NRG1C variant regulates this process by competing with functional NRG1s. Amazing collaboration between Jijie Chai and Parker Labs.
