Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Pathogens are considered as agents of disease and these are mostly fungi, bacteria, nematodes that live off the plant and damage its tissues. Plants have certain mechanisms that put off or kill attackers. The first line of defense for plants is its impenetrable bark that is composed of bark and waxy cuticle. Both of these barriers protect plants from pathogens.

Autoinducer must bind to receptor to turn on transcription of genes responsible for the production of more autoinducer. The receptor stays in the bacterial cell but the autoinducer diffuses out. Autoinducer can only act on a different cell: it cannot act on the cell in which it is made. Autoinducer turns on genes that enable the bacteria to form a biofilm.arrow_forwardWhich answer correctly shows a signal transduction pathway?
