abstract
bivalent histone modifications regulate gene expression during development, but little is known about their function in plant-microbe interactions. in a recent report, zhao et al. showed that expression of bivalent chromatin-marked gene 1 ( bcg1 ), containing a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (pamp) motif, is epigenetically regulated by trimethylation of lysine 4 (h3k4me3) and lysine 27 (h3k27me3) of histone h3 to evade plant immunity.
