Plant resistance to disease caused by phytopathogenic organisms is often triggered by the ability of the plant to specifically recognize the invading pathogen. One of the most fascinating areas in plant biology research focusses on understanding the mechanisms governing this process. Several recent breakthroughs in this area have come from the genetic analyses of disease resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana.
植物对植物病原生物引起的疾病的抗性通常由植物特异性识别入侵病原体的能力触发。植物生物学研究中最引人入胜的领域之一集中在理解控制这一过程的机制上。该领域最近的几项突破来自对拟南芥抗病性的遗传分析。
