Transformation of flg22 perception into electrical signals decoded in vasculature leads to sieve tube blockage and pathogen resistance Flg22-triggered dual electric signals are crucial for generation of local and systemic defense responses.

A recent collaborative study including contributions from our institute explores how Arabidopsis and Vicia faba plants convert flg22 perception into electrical signals, triggering defense responses.
