University of California-Davis distinguished professor and IS-MPMI member Dr. Pam Ronald has been awarded the 2022 International Wolf Prize in Agriculture "for pioneering work on disease resistance and environmental stress tolerance in rice." The Wolf Prize is awarded for achievements in the interest of humankind and friendly relations among people.
 
Pyrenophora tritici-repentis causes tan spot, an important foliar disease of wheat worldwide. This fungal pathogen produces three necrotrophic effectors (Ptr ToxA, Ptr ToxB, and Ptr ToxC) to induce necrosis or chlorosis in wheat. Here, Gongjun Shi and colleagues report the genetic mapping, molecular cloning, and functional analysis of the fungal gene (ToxC1) required for Ptr ToxC production.
 
Senior graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are encouraged to present their MPMI research at the new Early Career Showcase. The showcase will take place online June 8–9 and September 20–21 and is free to all IS-MPMI members. Nominate yourself, a colleague, or a student before March 31.

New MPMI Editor's Pick Announced!
Learn about new evidence revealing variability in the epitope regions of bacterial flagellin, including regions harboring the microbe-associated molecular patterns flg22 and flgII-28 that are recognized by pattern recognition receptors. Maria Malvino and colleagues discuss the "Influence of Flagellin Polymorphisms, Gene Regulation, and Responsive Memory on the Motility of Xanthomonas Species That Cause Bacterial Spot Disease of Solanaceous Plants."
