Our new study shows that a #phytopathogenic bacterium uses distinct #chemoreceptors to detect plant defence compounds, revealing an important role for #chemotaxis in plant #virulence. @krelllaboratory.bsky.social @gavirius.bsky.social @robertagenova.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Happy to share our new paper! Many thanks to the @embo.org fellowship for supporting this new collaboration with Dr. Ashleigh Holmes at the @hutton.ac.uk , and many thanks to all the people who contributed and collaborated @miguelmatilla.bsky.social @gavirius.bsky.social
Chemotaxis to plant defense compounds in phytopathogens. Pathogen attack triggers the release of defense compounds by plants. Bacteria move chemotactically to these compounds.Nice collaboration with Ashleigh Holmes, @gavirius.bsky.social, @miguelmatilla.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Very pleased to see that out in PNAS: Bacterial sensor evolved by decreasing complexity. Evolution is not always towards complexity. Yet another wonderful collaboration with @zhulinlab @gavirius and @miguel_matilla, @BLASTMeetings @SEMicrobiologia www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
