Invasion of Plants by Powdery Mildew Fungi, and Cellular Mechanisms of Resistance

  • Chapter
The Fungal Spore and Disease Initiation in Plants and Animals

Abstract

Cereal powdery mildews are among the most intensely studied of plant diseases. Consequently, much of what is known about early host-parasite interactions has come from studies of these diseases. Most of this information has already been adequately reviewed within the past decade (Aist, 1981, 1983; Aist and Gold, 1987; Bushnell, 1982; Kunoh, 1982, 1987; Sherwood and Vance, 1982) and will not be emphasized here. We will focus, instead, on results of more recent research into early interactions between Erysiphe graminis and its cereal hosts, especially those interactions related to disease resistance, to provide an update on the state of our knowledge in this host-pathogen system.
