Plant cellular messengers mobilized to defend

Cell Host Microbe. 2024 Mar 13;32(3):302-303. doi: 10.1016/j.chom.2024.02.005.

Abstract

Phosphatidic acid (PA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are cellular messengers that relay signals to regulate diverse biological processes. In recent issues of Cell Host & Microbe and Cell, Qi et al. and Kong et al., respectively, investigate diacylglycerol kinase 5-mediated PA in regulating ROS signaling and plant immunity.
