植物育种家已经开发出了对害虫具有抗性的作物，但病原体的持续进化需要迭代开发新的控制策略。分子工具使我们能够深入了解疾病反应，从而能够更有效，合理地改造作物，使其更强大或抵抗更多的病原体变体。在这里，我们描述了SWEET和STP转运蛋白的作用，这些膜蛋白介导糖跨质膜的转运。我们讨论了这些转运蛋白如何通过控制提供给病原体的营养水平来增强或限制疾病，以及转运蛋白是否在抗病的糖信号传导中发挥作用。这篇综述指出了需要进一步研究的开放性问题，并提出了使用基因组编辑技术进行工程抗病性。
Plant breeders have developed crop plants that are resistant to pests, but the continual evolution of pathogens creates the need to iteratively develop new control strategies. Molecular tools have allowed us to gain deep insights into disease responses, allowing for more efficient, rational engineering of crops that are more robust or resistant to a greater number of pathogen variants. Here we describe the roles of SWEET and STP transporters, membrane proteins that mediate transport of sugars across the plasma membrane. We discuss how these transporters may enhance or restrict disease through controlling the level of nutrients provided to pathogens and whether the transporters play a role in sugar signaling for disease resistance. This review indicates open questions that require further research and proposes the use of genome editing technologies for engineering disease resistance.
