signaling processes that recruit, potentiate or trigger cellular defense responses
in soybean.

- Successful plant defense involves a tightly programmed spatial and temporal
network of cellular responses. Even within a simple resistant disease lesion
cells take on distinct and complementary functions. We are investigating the
inter- and intracellular signaling processes that recruit and program the
fate of cells within a disease lesion and those which subsequently trigger
the ultimate defense responses.
