Deskripsi
Plant immune responses are often associated with reduced growth. Here, the authors show that combining mutations in transcriptional repressors of the defense and light perception pathways can confer both robust growth and strong herbivore defense, demonstrating that growth-defense tradeoffs can be uncoupled.
