This comprehensive reference covers various aspects of molecular plant pathology from the molecular basis of host defense mechanisms and molecular events leading to the suppression of defense mechanisms by fungal pathogens to fungal infection processes, including initial contact, penetration, and subsequent evasion of postpenetration defense mechanisms. Documenting and illustrating the most recent experimental results and hypotheses in depth, Fungal Pathogenesis in Plants and Crops discusses molecular events of pathogenesis elicitor-suppressor theory signal transduction process cell wall modif
