Many plants detect bacteria by the receptor FLS2 that binds the flagellin epitope flg22. A new pattern recognition receptor FLS3 in tomato detects flagellin from a second side; a further move in the evolutionary game of ‘hide and seek’ where pathogens evade recognition and hosts evolve novel immunoreceptors to detect them.
