PAMP Signals in Plant Innate Immunity

Exploring the intricacies of plant innate immunity, this book delves into the activation of the immune system in response to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). It highlights the role of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) and the complex signaling pathways that transmit danger signals, leading to the expression of defense genes. The text provides a detailed examination of the PAMP-PRR signaling complex and the second messengers involved, showcasing how plants mount their first line of defense against pathogens.
