Phosphoinositides in plant-pathogen interaction: trends and perspectives

Stress Biol. 2023 Apr 6;3(1):4. doi: 10.1007/s44154-023-00082-5.

Abstract

Phosphoinositides are important regulatory membrane lipids, with a role in plant development and cellular function. Emerging evidence indicates that phosphoinositides play crucial roles in plant defence and are also utilized by pathogens for infection. In this review, we highlight the role of phosphoinositides in plant-pathogen interaction and the implication of this remarkable convergence in the battle against plant diseases.
