A multiplant transcriptomic atlas reveals conserved and lineage-specific defense architectures in response to Botrytis cinerea

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 19, May 2026. <br/>SignificanceAchieving durable, broad-spectrum crop protection remains difficult because plant immunity models often rely on limited species and overlook natural genetic diversity. To understand how plant defense networks shift across diverse lineages, we …
