Too hot to defend: a tale of salicylic acid

H M Suraj et al. Trends Plant Sci. 2023 Jan.

Abstract

Extreme temperatures threaten plant immunity by suppressing the salicylic acid (SA) biosynthesis via unknown mechanisms. Kim et al. demonstrated that suppression of the SA pathway and plant immunity can be rescued by optimised expression of two master immune regulator(s), advancing our prospects for better protecting plants in a warming climate.

Keywords: biomolecular condensates; climate-resilient crops; heat response; plant immunity; salicylic acid.
