Major protein families involved in plant defence / Apoorva Masade, Anirudh Kumar and Hitendra K. Patel.Full-text restricted to subscribers or individual document purchasers.This book provides a complete and cohesive assessment of plant defence mechanisms in response to various biotic stresses. It also discusses the use of genetic engineering and molecular breeding to generate pathogen-resistant crops, as well as several case studies in the area. In addition, this work offers a path forward for dealing with impending issues. The study of host-pathogen interactions is concerned with the ongoing battle between plants and pathogens throughout their evolution which is generally complex. The appropriate updated information contained in this book makes it a valuable source of knowledge for all those working in crop development as it presents a comprehensive picture of plant-pathogen interaction.Faculty teaching UG and PG courses, research faculties, scientists and practitioners in crop sciences, sustainable agriculture, plant-pathogen interaction, etc.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Hitendra K.
