Pathogenesis-related Proteins

  • Chapter
Genes Involved in Plant Defense

Part of the book series: Plant Gene Research ((GENE))

Abstract

The survival of higher plants is dependent upon their ability to adapt to stress. Accordingly, plants have evolved to respond to stress by altering their normal patterns of gene expression (Sachs and Ho, 1986) and physiology. Adverse conditions that affect a plant’s homeostasis are caused by environmental factors such as temperature, water, salt, mechanical damage (wounding), chemicals, uv light, and the interaction with pathogenic organism.
