BACKGROUND: Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is a plant defense response that provides long-lasting, broad-spectrum pathogen resistance to uninfected distal leaves following an initial localized infection. However, little information is available on the molecular biological bas...
Ralstonia solanacearum, one of the most destructive crop pathogens worldwide, causes bacterial wilt disease in a wide range of host plants. The major component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, lipopolysaccharides (LPS), has been shown to function as elicitors of plant defense lead...
Background: Staphylococcus aureus (SA) remains a global health threat due to its increasing drug resistance and intracellular persistence, which compromise the efficacy of conventional antibiotics. Host-directed therapy (HDT) has emerged as a promising alternative by modulating host...
