Fig. 1. Accumulation and metabolism of nematode-derived ascr#18 in plants.

Fig. 1

a Recognition of nematode-derived ascr#18 activates pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) in plants, similar to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) derived from other microbes. b Examples for ascarosides previously discovered in C. elegans and other nematode species. c LC-MS analysis of Arabidopsis roots treated with 1 µM ascr#18 for 24 h, showing extracted ion chromatograms [EIC] in ESI- of ascr#18, ascr#10, ascr#1, and ascr#9. Peaks marked with an asterisk represent unrelated metabolites of similar m/z. d Accumulation of ascarosides in Arabidopsis, tomato, and wheat roots treated with 1 µM ascr#18 for 24 h. Abundances of ascarosides are shown as the peak area, as measured in LC-MS. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 5) (also see Supplementary Fig. 1). Source data are provided as a source data file.
