The agriculturally important genus Colletotrichum is an emerging model pathogen for studying defense in Arabidopsis. During the process of screening novel pathogenic isolates on Arabidopsis, we found significant differences responses between detached and attached leaf assays. A near-adapted isolate linicola A1 could launch a typical infection only detached, but not attached, Arabidopsis leaves. Remarkably, resistance gene-like locus RCH1-mediated intact plants also was compromised leaves...

Different phosphoinositides enriched at the membranes of specific subcellular compartments within plant cells contribute to organelle identity, ensuring appropriate cellular trafficking and function. During infection cells, biotrophic pathogens such as powdery mildews enter differentiate into haustoria. Each haustorium is enveloped by an extrahaustorial membrane (EHM) derived from host plasma membrane. Little known about EHM biogenesis identity. Here, we demonstrate that among two in Arabidopsis (
