What is it about?
The plasma membrane protein PEN3/PDR8/ABCG36 interacts with the calcium sensor calmodulin to confer nonhostresistance in thale cress.

Why is it important?
The work helps understanding molecular mechanisms of plant disease resistance and may contribute to food security.
Perspectives
Nonhost resistance is the most durable type of plant disease resistance. Undestanding nonhost resistance provides the best possible means for securing crop yield in the mid-to-long term.
