Abstract
Plant cell wall in pathogenesis, parasitism and symbiosis.
Highlights
The cell wall is the foremost interface at which interactions take place between plants and a wide range of other organisms including insects, nematodes, pathogenic, or symbiotic microorganisms
This Research Topic includes Mini Reviews, Reviews, Original Research Articles, and Perspective Articles that provide novel insights and detailed overviews on the dynamics of the plant cell wall in plant defense, parasitism, and symbiosis and describes experimental approaches to study plant cell wall modifications occurring during interaction of plants with different organisms
Blanco-Ulate and co-authors present a genome-wide transcriptional profiling of Botrytis cinerea cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) expressed during infection of important nutritional resources such as lettuce leaves, ripe tomato fruit, and grape berries (Blanco-Ulate et al, 2014)
Summary
The cell wall is the foremost interface at which interactions take place between plants and a wide range of other organisms including insects, nematodes, pathogenic, or symbiotic microorganisms. This Research Topic includes Mini Reviews, Reviews, Original Research Articles, and Perspective Articles that provide novel insights and detailed overviews on the dynamics of the plant cell wall in plant defense, parasitism, and symbiosis and describes experimental approaches to study plant cell wall modifications occurring during interaction of plants with different organisms. Once the microbe has penetrated, the cell wall becomes a battleground where plants and pathogens attempt to prevail.
