摘要

Recognition of pathogen effector proteins by plant NLR proteins often involves decoy proteins, which mimic effector targets. In certain examples such decoys are integrated as fusions into their cognate NLR. Two new studies have analysed thousands of predicted NLRs to address how commonly plants use this 'integrated decoy' strategy.
