In agro-ecosystem, plant pathogens hamper food quality, crop yield, and global food security. Manipulation of naturally occurring defense mechanisms in host plants is an effective and sustainable approach for plant disease management. Various natural compounds, ranging from cell wall components to metabo...

How do killer T-cells destroy pathogens? How does C. diphtheriae acquire virulence? How can epidemics be prevented? How is leprosy spread? How does the immune system respond to bacteria? How are viruses different from cells? How is encephalitis spread?
asterum needs two different host plants, in this case, a pine tree and an aster. Treatment: Live with the disease. Pine needle rusts do very little damage. Water and mulch. Do this when it is dry to help infected trees. Remove the asters. Pine needle rust needs both pine needles ...
Researchers at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) have published new findings in Molecular and Cellular Proteomics on critical cellular processes triggered when cells respond to environmental stress. Mark Marten, professor of chemical, b
COVID-19 is a reminder of their destructive power, but they’re crucial to humans’ development and survival.
In other words, plants must make tens of thousands of chemical compounds, which they use to ward off competition from other plants, to fight infections, and to respond generally to the environment. A second reason why plants have so many genes might be gene duplication, or more precisely ...
We explore this question in the following sections, focusing on two possible, not mutually exclusive explanations: facilitation of mycorrhizal species by non-mycorrhizal species, and greater susceptibility of non-mycorrhizal plants to soil-borne pathogens. Facilitation...
the nutrient has only reached the surface of the plant root. The next process (absorption) is much more difficult to understand. First, consider the nature of plant roots. To provide protection from leaking their contents and from attack by microorganism pathogens, plant roots have developed an ...
