A parasite's ability to infect and a host's ability to resist infection can be heritable traits. Patterns of inheritance suggest how host genes interact with parasite genes to determine whether or not infection occurs. Recent progress in the isolation and characterization of these genes in plants sheds new light on parasitism.
寄生虫的感染能力和宿主的抗感染能力可能是可遗传的性状。遗传模式揭示了宿主基因与寄生虫基因如何相互作用以决定感染是否会发生。植物中这些基因的分离和表征方面的最新进展为寄生现象带来了新的启示。
