Plant Immune Responses:Plant Immune Responses:
![Page 31: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
1) When bacteria come into contact with a plant cell, the plant cells detect its presence
due to receptors called PRR.
![Page 32: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
A signalling pathway is activated. Molecular events occur and the bacterial growth is
stopped.BASAL DEFENCE was activated.
![Page 33: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
2) Bacteria often have a Type III secretion system which allows them to directly inject
their proteins into the plant cells.
![Page 34: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Some of these proteins can stop a plant cell’s Basal Defence. If this happens, then the bacteria continues growing and the plant
develops a disease.
![Page 35: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Plant cells have proteins which can recognize these bacterial proteins and neutralize them.
When a recognition occurs, the protein essentially blocks that of the bacteria and
creates a new pathway.
![Page 36: Immune System. An open wound allows ‘germs’ to enter the body.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bffb1a28abf838cc0c25/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
This new pathway allows the plant cell to become resistant to the attacks of the
bacteria.
