Dedicated photoreceptor pathways in Drosophila larvae mediate navigation by processing either spatial or temporal cues

Humberg, Tim-Henning ; Bruegger, Pascal ; Afonso, Bruno ; Zlatic, Marta ; Truman, James W. ; Gershow, Marc ; Samuel, Aravinthan ; Sprecher, Simon G.

In: Nature Communications, 2018, vol. 9, no. 1, p. 1260

To integrate changing environmental cues with high spatial and temporal resolution is critical for animals to orient themselves. Drosophila larvae show an effective motor program to navigate away from light sources. How the larval visual circuit processes light stimuli to control navigational decision remains unknown. The larval visual system is composed of two sensory input channels,...

In roots of Arabidopsis thaliana, the damage-associated molecular pattern AtPep1 is a stronger elicitor of immune signalling than flg22 or the chitin heptamer

Poncini, Lorenzo ; Wyrsch, Ines ; Tendon, Valérie Dénervaud ; Vorley, Thomas ; Boller, Thomas ; Geldner, Niko ; Métraux, Jean-Pierre ; Lehmann, Silke

In: PLOS ONE, 2017, vol. 12, no. 10, p. e0185808

Plants interpret their immediate environment through perception of small molecules. Microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) such as flagellin and chitin are likely to be more abundant in the rhizosphere than plant-derived damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). We investigated how the Arabidopsis thaliana root interprets MAMPs and DAMPs as danger signals. We monitored root...

The innate immune signaling system as a regulator of disease resistance and induced systemic resistance activity against Verticillium dahliae

Gkizi, Danai ; Lehmann, Silke ; L’Haridon, Floriane ; Serrano, Mario ; Paplomatas, Epaminondas J. ; Métraux, Jean-Pierre ; Tjamos, Sotirios E.

In: Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2016, vol. 29, no. 4, p. 313–323

In the last decades, the plant innate immune responses against pathogens have been extensively studied, while biocontrol interactions between soilborne fungal pathogens and their hosts have received much less attention. Treatment of Arabidopsis thaliana with the nonpathogenic bacterium Paenibacillus alvei K165 was shown previously to protect against Verticillium dahliae by triggering induced...
