In addition to defense mediated by PRRs and NB-LRRs, antiviral defense also occurs via RNA silencing. Virus-triggered RNA silencing is possibly the only example of homologous immune responses between plants and animals, and the only example of adaptive immunity in plants....
defense. The idea that organic defenses increase the defensive effect of metals through additivity or synergy comprises the joint effects hypothesis of Boyd (2007). Boyd (2004) initially speculated that elemental defenses might interact with organic chemical defenses, and initial tests by Jheeet al....
In our review, we will discuss how the decentralization of plant immune systems have provided both increased evolutionary opportunity for pathogen resistance, as well as additional mechanisms for pathogen inhibition of such defense responses. We conclude that the rapid advances in bioinformatics and ...
aTo resist pathogen infections, plants utilize a variety of active defense mechanisms to participate in plant–pathogen interactions, in which the plant secondary metabolism plays an important role and appears to be eVective against pathogen attacks. 要抵抗病原生物传染,植物运用各种各样的积极防御机制...
In order to cope with highly toxic metals or to maintain the level of essential metals within the physiological range, plants have developed a variety of complex mechanisms for metals tolerance. While major step is to accumulate and compartmentalize the metals in plant tissue, antioxidative sytem ...
Plants defense mechanisms in response to wounding Jadwiga Szczegielniak Department of Plant Biochemistry, Institute Biochemistry and Biophysics Polish Academy of Sciences, Pawińskiego 5a Str, 02-106 Warsaw, Poland Plants respond to mechanical wounding or herbivore attack not only in damaged tissue (lo...
These findings support the "defense de-escalation" hypothesis, which posits that organisms will evolve to stop using precious resources on defense mechanisms if they're not working anymore. One benefit of defense de-escalation is potentially diverting resources to defenses that do work. ...
Plants evolve defense mechanisms to tolerate these stresses by upregulation of osmolytes, osmoprotectants, and enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants, etc. This volume deals with abiotic stress-induced morphological and anatomical changes, abberations in metabolism, strategies and approaches to increase ...
“With our current findings, we are starting to understand one of the mechanisms behind the growth-defense trade-off,” Schippers stated. “This understanding is crucial if we want to improve plant biomass production without risking impairment of their ability to defend against pathogens”. ...
