Abstract

It has been 136 years since the description that fungal spores penetrated into a stoma, and 16 years since the concept of stomatal defense was developed. Recent advances have provided new insights into stomata-pathogen interactions. We briefly chronicle the milestone achievements and discuss new frontiers in stomata-pathogen interactions.
