MOLECULAR BASIS OF PLANT-FUNGAL PATHOGEN INTERACTION AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE IN MANAGEMENT OF PLANT DISEASES: A REVIEW

Le résumé fourni par la source

Plant-pathogen interactions are very complex and multifaceted and plant-fungal pathogen interactions are one of them. These are two way interactions between the attacking fungal pathogen and the host plant. In plant- fungal pathogen interaction, different studies revealed that plants have developed multiple resistance responses at several levels against the invading pathogen in due course of time and on the contrary, fungal pathogens also adapt and produce different molecules to counteract plant defense mechanism and proliferate into the host cells. There are two crucial pathways of plant immune response, which includes the pathogenassociated molecular patterns (PAMP)-triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI). Since PTI and ETI are the two main routes underlying plant immunity, it would be highly useful to comprehend their specifics and the significant components in these cascades. Although, many theories and models have been proposed to address these interactions, none of them are exhaustive and fully understood. Therefore, it is essential to make a comprehensive summery of the existing plant-fungal pathogen interaction models and map out their involvement related to plant protection. This review focuses to understand these complex interactions, which can facilitate the unraveling of the involvement of different plant resistance pathways and the molecular mechanisms of plant immune responses against fungal-pathogens.
