Really proud of this collaborative work exploring how fungal effectors exploit prion-like domains to access plastids and influence plant metabolism during symbiosis. Great to see the PEPSI–DXR story come together. @neto_flames @JohanaMisas @TheVilchezLab

I am excited to share our new paper in New Phytologist!
We found that CDPKs are key for sustained ROS burst during ETI.

Just online! Effectors extend beyond immune suppression acting as multifunctional tools and immunometabolic regulators that synergistically shape host compatibility and the microbiota. Immunometabolic (re)programming: microbial strategies for compatibility share.google/evkj7YUd0fFAt4f…

Plz repost. Fresh Preprint led by @AlexWGuyon
When a pathogen pushes into a cell already occupied by a symbiotic fungus, things change. New membrane phosphoinositides at haustoria may impact immunity & trafficking - And the roots are more resistant!

1/🚨 New preprint alert!
Can mutualists and pathogens co-colonise the same living plant cell and what does that do to the plant membranes that surround these microbes?

#iMMM2025 @dralexdallaire with a banger of a research finding - AM fungi have lost the tools (ie polymerases) for DNA replication and translesion repair resembling findings in Microsporidia
So, how does replication work?
