Description

Jessica Foret, Jung-Gun Kim, Elizabeth S. Sattely, and Mary Beth Mudgett wrote a plant science paper, published in 2025, on how a small chemical helps plants fight disease. The chemical, called NHP, moves through the plant and switches on broad defense after an attack. What it does in the first minutes and hours was not well known.

Working with Arabidopsis plants, the team tracked which genes turn on soon after NHP treatment. A first wave raised genes for a family of switch proteins, and a second wave raised the defense genes those switches control. Much of the early wave needed a second defense chemical, while the later wave did not. One switch, WRKY70, proved key for turning on a set of defense genes.
