Mechanisms of resistance

  • Chapter
The Cyst Nematodes

Abstract

A multitude of potential pathogens are present in the plant environment. Most of these pathogens, however, are unable to breach structural barriers or withstand preformed antimicrobial compounds of the plant (Kuć, 1992; Grayer and Harborne, 1994; Osbourn, 1996). Some pathogens are able to penetrate the plant but many of them are overcome by the defence mechanisms activated by the pathogenic infection. Only those pathogens with the ability to circumvent the defence mechanisms are able to successfully infect and colonize the plant. Thus, plant defence is generally sound, and plant disease is the exception and not the rule (Campbell, Huang and Payne, 1980).
