Plants resist potential microbial infections by deploying a wide range of innate defenses. More than 150 plant scientists assembled recently at a Keystone Conference in Colorado to discuss the latest advances in plant innate immunity. Many novel and exciting findings were presented in the spirit of the meeting. This report highlights some key presentations. In the keynote address Brian Staskawicz University of California Berkeley USA illustrated major advances over the past half century and recent paradigm shifts Figure 1 and encouraged his audience to integrate their studies on pathogen effector functions the in planta targets and molecular bases of resistance towards the development of durable disease resistance in the field. PAMP-triggered immunity Pathogen-associated molecular patterns PAMPs are conserved microbial structures that are perceived through host receptors and induce a plethora of plant defense responses triggering immunity. In Arabidopsis the best-characterized PAMPs are the bacterial proteins flagellin flg22 and translation elongation factor Tu elfi8 which are recognized by the plant receptor kinases FLS2 and EFR respectively both of which use the receptor kinase BAK1 as a cofactor. Despite its importance in plant defense little is known about the molecular basis of PAMP signaling and the components required for PAM P-triggered immunity.
