Abstract
The entire presentation leads us to the conclusion that in recent years, thanks to the efforts of many groups of scientists, definite progress has been made in the study of the biochemical nature of plant resistance to phytopathogenic microorganisms. A step forward has been taken toward unraveling one of the innermost secrets of animate nature: by what method higher plants, many times exceeded by microorganisms in rate of multiplication, plasticity, variability, and adaptation to unfavorable conditions of existence, are rendered not completely defenseless to parasites so that their death is more the exception than the rule.
