Focusing on the intricate mechanisms of plant innate immunity, this book explores how plants detect and respond to pathogens through pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs). It delves into the activation of the immune system, which remains dormant in healthy plants until triggered. The text highlights the role of second messengers in processing PAMP signals and activating defense genes, while detailing the complex signaling pathways that orchestrate the plant's response to various threats.
