Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involve in defense respond against pathogen attack and show great potentials to improve plant resistance. Tomato late blight, a destructive plant disease, is caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, which seriously affects the yield and quality of tomato. Our previous research has shown that Sl-lncRNA47980 is involved in response to P. infestans infection, but its molecular mechanism is unknown. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments revealed that Sl-lncRNA47980 as a positive regulator, played a crucial role in enhancing tomato resistance to P. infestans. The Sl-lncRNA47980-overexpressing transgenic plants exhibited an improved ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), decreased contents of endogenous gibberellin (GA) and salicylic acid (SA), and increased contents of jasmonic acid (JA), while silencing of Sl-lncRNA47980 showed an opposite trend in the levels of these hormones. Furthermore, it was found that Sl-lncRNA47980 could upregulate the expression of SlGA2ox4 gene through activation of the promoter of SlGA2ox4 to affect GA content. The increased expression of the tomato GA signaling repressor SlDELLA could activate JA-related genes and inhibit SA-related genes to varying degrees respectively. In addition, exogenous application of GA3 and GA synthesis inhibitor uniconazole could increase disease susceptibility of Sl-lncRNA47980-overexpressing plants and the resistance of Sl-lncRNA47980-silenced plants, respectively, to P. infestans. From thus, it was speculated that Sl-lncRNA47980 conferred tomato resistance to P. infestans, which was related to the decrease in endogenous GA content. Our study provided information to link Sl-lncRNA47980 with changes in ROS accumulation and phytohormone levels in plant immunity, thus providing a new candidate gene for tomato breeding.

Abstract
Plants have to constantly face pathogen attacks. To cope with diseases, they have to detect the invading pathogen as early as possible via the sensing of conserved motifs called invasion patterns. The first step of perception occurs at the plasma membrane. While many invasion patterns are perceived by specific proteinaceous immune receptors, several studies have highlighted the influence of the lipid composition and dynamics of the plasma membrane in the sensing of invasion patterns. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on how some microbial invasion patterns could interact with the lipids of the plasma membrane, leading to a plant immune response. Depending on the invasion pattern, different mechanisms are involved. This review outlines the potential of combining biological with biophysical approaches to decipher how plasma membrane lipids are involved in the perception of microbial invasion patterns.

Abstract
Heat shock factors (HSFs) play a crucial role in the environmental stress responses of numerous plant species, including defense responses to pathogens; however, their role in cotton resistance to Verticillium dahliae remains unclear. We have previously identified several differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in Arabidopsis thaliana after inoculation with V. dahliae. Here, we discovered that GhHSFA4a in Gossypium hirsutum (cotton) after inoculation with V. dahliae shares a high identity with a DEG in A. thaliana in response to V. dahliae infection. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis indicated that GhHSFA4a expression was rapidly induced by V. dahliae and ubiquitous in cotton roots, stems, and leaves. In a localization analysis using transient expression, GhHSFA4a was shown to be localized to the nucleus. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) revealed that downregulation of GhHSFA4a significantly increased cotton susceptibility to V. dahliae. To investigate GhHSFA4a-mediated defense, 814 DEGs were identified between GhHSFA4a-silenced plants and controls using comparative RNA-seq analysis. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that DEGs were enriched in "flavonoid biosynthesis", "sesquiterpenoid and triterpenoid biosynthesis", "linoleic acid metabolism" and "alpha-linolenic acid metabolism". The expression levels of marker genes for these four pathways were triggered after inoculation with V. dahliae. Moreover, GhHSFA4a-overexpressing lines of A. thaliana displayed enhanced resistance against V. dahliae compared to that of the wild type. These results indicate that GhHSFA4a is involved in the synthesis of secondary metabolites and signal transduction, which are indispensable for innate immunity against V. dahliae in cotton.

Abstract
Plants are surrounded by a diverse range of microorganisms that causes serious crop losses and requires the use of pesticides. Flax is a major crop in Normandy used for its fibres and is regularly challenged by the pathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum (Fo) f. sp. lini. To protect themselves, plants use "innate immunity" as a first line of defense level against pathogens. Activation of plant defense with elicitors could be an alternative for crop plant protection. A previous work was conducted by screening a chemical library and led to the identification of compounds able to activate defense responses in Arabidopsis thaliana. Four compounds were tested for their abilities to improve resistance of two flax varieties against Fo. Two of them, one natural (holaphyllamine or HPA) and one synthetic (M4), neither affected flax nor Fo growth. HPA and M4 induced oxidative burst and callose deposition. Furthermore, HPA and M4 caused changes in the expression patterns of defense-related genes coding a glucanase and a chitinase-like. Finally, plants pre-treated with HPA or M4 exhibited a significant decrease in the disease symptoms. Together, these findings demonstrate that HPA and M4 are able to activate defense responses in flax and improve its resistance against Fo infection.

Abstract
AIM To identify potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of HIV-1 progression. METHODS 19 subjects, diagnosed with HIV-1 infection in the follow-up, prospective, clinical cohort more than 6000 subjects from 2006, were incorporated into our study. The subjects included ten non-progressors and nine rapid progressors. The plasmas of subjects before HIV-1 seroconversion and after seroconversion were collected and analyzed with nontargeted metabolomics. RESULTS 20:0-Glc-Campesterol and A-norgorgostanol could significantly distinguished after HIV-1 seroconversion from before HIV-1 seroconversion. PG(O-18:0/18:0) could totally distinguish the plasma of rapid progressor before seroconversion from that of nonprogressor before seroconversion. CONCLUSION 20:0-Glc-Campesterol, A-norgorgostanol and PG(O-18:0/18:0) could be potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of HIV-1 progression.
