Abstract
Plants rely on sophisticated immune systems to defend against diverse pathogens that threaten their growth, development, and global food security. Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) are a central component in plant immunity. Innovative NLR engineering may improve plant disease resistance and offer new opportunities for sustainable crop production.
