Abstract：The project aims to reveal the signal transduction pathway of plant immunity and the anti-microbial mechanism of plant， analyze the bio-function of virulence proteins of pathogen. Based on the establishment of an effective genetic screening system and develop of efficient map-based cloning technology， amount of new genes which play important role in the dynamic interplay between plants and pathogens are found， including SNC1、DND1、DND2、MOS14. The molecular biology function of these genes is characterized through biochemistry， cell biology and structural biology analysis method. Each sole biology events is integrated by bioinformatics and systems biology， which reflects the network of plants and pathogens interaction. So far， A joined team led by Professor Jian-Min Zhou of the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology， CAS and Professor Zhaozu He from Hainan University reveal the unique biochemical function of effector AvrAC from Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris （Xcc） and illustrate the molecular mechanism by which the Xcc bacterium combats the plant innate immune system. A joined group led by Professor Jian-Min Zhou of the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology， CAS and Professor Jijie Chai of Tsinghua University discovered the mechanism by which the receptor CERK1 is activated by chitin. This work provides great insights into plant immunity and the mechanism of other receptor kinase. The team led by Professor Yuelin Zhang set up a genetic screen system to find the suppressor of a constitutively active defense response mutants snc1 and get amount of important components of plant immunity， including SNC1、DND1、DND2、MOS14. The biology function of these genes in plant immunity is well characterized. The group led by Professor Jijie Chai of Tsinghua University present the crystal structure of BRI1 in free and brassinolide-bound forms， which reveals a new membrane domain binding steroidal hormone. In conclusion， the research of these three group elucidate the signal transduction pathway of plant immunity and the anti-microbial mechanism of plant， reveal the biochemical function and molecular mechanism of virulence proteins of pathogen.

Key Words：Pathogenic microbes； Suppressor screening； Chitin； Steroid hormone
