Ohtsu M, Jennings J, Johnston M, Breakspear A, Liu X, Stark K, et al.
Mol Plant Microbe Interact . 2023 Nov; 37(2):84-92. PMID: 37942798
In plants, plasmodesmata establish cytoplasmic continuity between cells to allow for communication and resource exchange across the cell wall. While plant pathogens use plasmodesmata as a pathway for both molecular...

Johnston M, Breakspear A, Samwald S, Zhang D, Papp D, Faulkner C, et al.
J Exp Bot . 2023 Jan; 74(6):1821-1835. PMID: 36639877
Plasmodesmata are cytosolic bridges, lined by the plasma membrane and traversed by endoplasmic reticulum; plasmodesmata connect cells and tissues, and are critical for many aspects of plant biology. While plasmodesmata...

Bellandi A, Papp D, Breakspear A, Joyce J, Johnston M, de Keijzer J, et al.
Sci Adv . 2022 Oct; 8(42):eabo6693. PMID: 36269836
In plants, a variety of stimuli trigger long-range calcium signals that travel rapidly along the vasculature to distal tissues via poorly understood mechanisms. Here, we use quantitative imaging and analysis...

Reyes Caldas P, Zhu J, Breakspear A, Thapa S, Toruno T, Perilla-Henao L, et al.
Mol Plant Microbe Interact . 2022 Aug; 35(12):1067-1080. PMID: 35952362
Climate change is predicted to increase the prevalence of vector-borne disease due to expansion of insect populations. ' Liberibacter solanacearum' is a phloem-limited pathogen associated with multiple economically important diseases...

Roy S, Breakspear A, Cousins D, Torres-Jerez I, Jackson K, Kumar A, et al.
Mol Plant Microbe Interact . 2021 Mar; 34(8):939-951. PMID: 33779265
Several ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters involved in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis and nodulation have been identified. We describe three previously unreported ABC subfamily B transporters, named AMN1, AMN2, and AMN3...

Cheval C, Samwald S, Johnston M, de Keijzer J, Breakspear A, Liu X, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2020 Apr; 117(17):9621-9629. PMID: 32284410
The plasma membrane (PM) is composed of heterogeneous subdomains, characterized by differences in protein and lipid composition. PM receptors can be dynamically sorted into membrane domains to underpin signaling in...

Liu C, Breakspear A, Stacey N, Findlay K, Nakashima J, Ramakrishnan K, et al.
Nat Commun . 2019 Jun; 10(1):2848. PMID: 31253759
During root nodule symbiosis, intracellular accommodation of rhizobia by legumes is a prerequisite for nitrogen fixation. For many legumes, rhizobial colonization initiates in root hairs through transcellular infection threads. In...

Feike D, Korolev A, Soumpourou E, Murakami E, Reid D, Breakspear A, et al.
Plant Biotechnol J . 2019 Apr; 17(12):2234-2245. PMID: 31022324
Plant synthetic biology and cereal engineering depend on the controlled expression of transgenes of interest. Most engineering in plant species to date has relied heavily on the use of a...

Liu C, Breakspear A, Guan D, Cerri M, Jackson K, Jiang S, et al.
Plant Physiol . 2019 Feb; 179(4):1704-1722. PMID: 30710053
The symbiotic infection of root cells by nitrogen-fixing rhizobia during nodulation requires the transcription factor Nodule Inception (NIN). Our root hair transcriptomic study extends NIN's regulon to include and genes...

Luginbuehl L, Menard G, Kurup S, van Erp H, Radhakrishnan G, Breakspear A, et al.
Science . 2017 Jun; 356(6343):1175-1178. PMID: 28596311
Plants form beneficial associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, which facilitate nutrient acquisition from the soil. In return, the fungi receive organic carbon from the plants. The transcription factor RAM1 (REQUIRED...
