Abstract

Plants remember information related to previous pathogen infection as immunological memory, leading to a primed state of enhanced immune responses. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Gong et al. (2019) discover that immune priming is established through crosstalk between cell-surface co-receptors upon MAMP perception.
