This project investigates how cell-to-cell communication in plants affects immune responses to pathogens. By studying the role of plasmodesmata, it aims to understand the mechanisms of plant defense and pathogen strategies during infection.
Cell-to-cell communication is fundamental to multicellular organisms.
The exchange of information and resources between cells and tissues enables co-ordination of responses to environmental and developmental signals.
In plants, the cytoplasm of adjacent cells is connected by plasma membrane-line pores called plasmodesmata (PD) that cross the cell wall, generating cytoplasmic continuity between cells and tissues.
This interconnected cytoplasm is termed the symplast and is unique to plants.
