Between Host and Invaders: The Subcellular Cell Wall Dynamics at the Plant-Pathogen Interface
Plant-pathogen interactions have profound ecological implications and are crucial for food security. Usually studied at the two extreme scales of plant organ symptomatology and host-microbe molecules, they are a cell-cell event mainly occurring at the subcellular level of the plant apoplast.

| Sumario: | Plant-pathogen interactions have profound ecological implications and are crucial for food security. Usually studied at the two extreme scales of plant organ symptomatology and host-microbe molecules, they are a cell-cell event mainly occurring at the subcellular level of the plant apoplast. Here, the cell walls of both organisms suffer an intense alteration as a consequence of active degradation by the opponent and self-protection mechanisms to survive and continue growing. The plant cell wall modifications and their role in defense as danger signals and activators of signaling cascades have been studied for a few decades, mainly at the organ plane. Still, much remains unknown about this process, including cellular and subcellular minority decorations, proteins, and mechanical cues. Comparatively, the microbial cell wall changes in planta are virtually unexplored. By investigating the interface between plant and microbial cell walls biochemically, structurally, and mechanically, we aim to highlight the dynamic interplay in these subcellular areas and its significance for the host-invader interaction. |
