A Fight between Plants and Pathogens for the Control of Chloroplasts
Abstract
Chloroplasts are the home of innumerable metabolic pathways for plant growth and environmental responses. Recently, in an issue of Cell, Medina-Puche et al. revealed a novel mechanism by which plant pathogens dampened host defense responses, orchestrated from chloroplasts. This mechanism encompassing the plasma membrane and chloroplasts has likely been established via host-pathogen co-evolution.
