摘要
Plant plasma membrane-resident immune receptors regulate plant immunity by recognizing microbe-associated molecular patterns(MAMPs),damage-associated molecular patterns(DAMPs),and phytocytokines.Phytocytokines are plant endogenous peptides,which are usually produced in the cytosol and released into the apoplast when plant encounters pathogen infections.Phytocytokines regulate plant immunity through activating an overlapping signaling pathway with MAMPs/DAMPs with some unique features.Here,we highlight the current understanding of phytocytokine production,perception and functions in plant immunity,and discuss how plants and pathogens manipulate phytocytokine signaling for their own benefits during the plant-pathogen warfare.
