摘 要:More than 12,000 plant species(ca.10%of flowering plants)exude latex when their tissues are *** is produced and stored in specialized cells named“laticifers.Laticifers form a tubing system composed of rows of elongated cells that branch and create an internal network encompassing the entire *** constitute a recent evolutionary achievement in ecophysiological adaptation to specific natural environments;however,their fitness benefit to the plant still remains to be *** identification of Euphorbia lathyris mutants(pil mutants)deficient in laticifer cells or latex metabolism,and therefore compromised in latex production,allowed us to test the importance of laticifers in pest *** provided genetic evidence indicating that laticifers represent a cellular adaptation for an essential defense strategy to fend off arthropod herbivores with different feeding habits,such as Spodoptera exigua and Tetranychus *** marked contrast,we also discovered that a lack of laticifer cells causes complete resistance to the fungal pathogen Botrytis ***,a latex-derived factor required for conidia germination on the leaf surface was *** factor promoted disease susceptibility enhancement even in the non-latex-bearing plant *** speculate on the role of laticifers in the coevolutionary arms race between plants and their enemies.
