Biochemical Reactions and Interactions

  • Chapter
Book cover Cyst Nematodes

Part of the book series: Nato ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 121))

Abstract

During their evolution plants not only acquired the ability to adapt to hostile environments but also versatile defense mechanisms against their enemies. Pathogens, on the other hand, have evolved to overcome the resistance mechanisms of the plants. Very little is known about this plant defense mechanism, but it appears to depend on events that are initiated soon after the plant cell and the pathogen come into contact. It is evident that there must be a general as well as a specific system in the host-parasite interaction, as a result of combined biochemical components, characteristic of normal host tissue and of the pathogens themselves. An appreciation of the two separate metabolic developments is necessary to interpret and distinguish between the metabolic changes due to host or to pathogen activity. In plants attacked by nematodes selective changes occur in the metabolism either as a consequence of the establishment of a compatible (susceptibility) host-pathogen interaction or as a result of incompatibility (resistance) between host and parasite.
