Advances in botanical research. Vol. 51, Plant innate immunity /

Plant innate immunity is a collective term to describe a complex of interconnected mechanisms that plants use to withstand potential pathogens and herbivores. The last decade has seen a rapid advance in our understanding of the induction, signal-transduction and expression of resistance responses to...
