Brassinosteroids Suppress Rice Defense Against Root-Knot Nematodes Through Antagonism With the Jasmonate Pathway

The importance of phytohormone balance is increasingly recognized as central to the outcome of plant–pathogen interactions. Next to their well-known developmental role, brassinosteroids (BR) were recently found to be involved in plant innate immunity. In this study, we examined the role of BR in ric...
