Autoimmunity in Arabidopsis acd11 is mediated by epigenetic regulation of an immune receptor.
Certain pathogens deliver effectors into plant cells to modify host protein targets and thereby suppress immunity. These target modifications can be detected by intracellular immune receptors, or Resistance (R) proteins, that trigger strong immune responses including localized host cell death. The a...
