Responses of Plant Cells to Adsorbed Bacteria

  • Chapter
Book cover Bacterial Adhesion

Abstract

To our knowledge this is the first review devoted entirely to the responses of plant cells to bacteria adhering to their surfaces. The choice of the term response is deliberate. It is intended to emphasize the fact that plant cells react to microorganisms, and that they are more than just passive substrates for bacterial colonization. Research on quantitative and qualitative aspects of bacterial adhesion to plant cells has gained momentum in recent years (see Dazzo, 1980; Sequeira, 1983; Pueppke, 1984; and Chapter 9). There also is a large body of data on the general responses of plants to challenge by pathogenic bacteria. Unfortunately, we often do not know how adherent bacteria influence plant responses. Distinctions between bacteria that are indeed bound and those that simply repose on plant cells also are difficult to make. As a consequence, we offer a substantial amount of speculative material in this section.
