Abstract: | "Plants perceive the presence of insect eggs deposited on leaves as a cue of imminent herbivore attack. Consequential plant signaling events include the accumulation of salicylic acid and reactive oxygen species, transcriptional reprogramming, and cell death. Interestingly, egg-induced innate immunity shows similarities with immune responses triggered upon recognition of microbial pathogens, and in recent years, it became apparent that egg perception affects plant-microbe interactions. Here, we highlight recent findings on insect egg-induced innate immunity and how egg-mediated signaling impacts plant-microbe interactions. Ecological considerations beg the question: Who benefits from egg perception in these complex interactions?" |
