Abstract | <p>The plant hormone salicylic acid plays an important role in balancing plant immunity and growth. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Liu et al. (2022) discovered that a long non-coding RNA, lncSABC1, promotes growth in uninfected plants and unleashes defenses when pathogens attack by transcriptionally regulating salicylic acid biosynthesis.</p> |
