Abstract

In the ongoing plant-pathogen arms race, plants use pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), while in successful pathogens, PAMPs can evolve to evade detection. Engineering PRRs to recognize evading PAMPs could potentially generate broad-spectrum and durable disease resistance. Here we reverse-engineered two natural variants of the PRR FLAGELLIN SENSING 2 (FLS2), VrFLS2XL and GmFLS2b, with extended recognition specificities towards evading flg22 variants. We identified minimal g
