Phenolic acids (PAs) secreted by donor plants suppress the growth of their susceptible plant neighbours. However, how structurally diverse ensembles of PAs are perceived by plants to mediate interspecific competition remains a mystery. Here, we show that a plant stress granule (SG) marker, RNA-BINDI...
Stress granules (SGs) are conserved reversible cytoplasmic condensates enriched with aggregation-prone proteins assembled in response to various stresses. Defects in disassembly have been associated with various neuro- and muscular degenerative diseases in humans. Plants appear to have efficient app...
