How does an understanding of the guard hypothesis change the way we view host-pathogen dynamics

So what about evolution?

What happens next?

Most plants are resistant to most pathogens

Non-Host Resistance is likely based on a number of mechanisms

The plant basal defence system

MAMPS are recognized by receptors at the cell surface

Slide 8

FLS2, the flagellin receptor was identified in Arabidopsis

Slide 10

So what’s the difference between MAMPs and AVR/Effector genes and between MAMP receptors and R-genes?

Slide 12

Slide 13

Slide 14

Slide 15

RIN4 again

Slide 17

Slide 18

Non-host resistance
