AI Article Synopsis
- Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are crucial in plant development and immunity, particularly in response to pathogens and microbes.
- Recent studies highlight the role of ROS in defending against pathogenic fungi, detailing how they are detected and their mechanisms of action.
- The article also discusses findings related to fungal interactions and the behaviors of roots during pathogen attacks.
Article Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been studied for their role in plant development as well as in plant immunity. ROS were consistently observed to accumulate in the plant after the perception of pathogens and microbes and over the years, ROS were postulated to be an integral part of the defence response of the plant. In this article we will focus on recent findings about ROS involved in the interaction of plants with pathogenic fungi. We will describe the ways to detect ROS, their modes of action and their importance in relation to resistance to fungal pathogens. In addition we include some results from works focussing on the fungal interactor and from studies investigating roots during pathogen attack.
