3) Induced responses
Plant Defense Response
Compatible interaction w disease
Incompatible interaction w resistance
3 aspects of response:
1. Hypersensitive
2. Local
3. Systemic
Hypersensitive response
Rapid - within 24 h
Not always needed for resistance
Includes:
± oxidative reactions (production of hydrogen
peroxide)
± deposition of callose (related to cellulose)
± opening of ion channels
± apoptosis (programmed cell death)
Disease symptoms
(necrotic lesions
surrounded by
chlorosis) caused by
the phytobacterium
strain DC3000
on inoculated leaves
of a susceptible
Col-0 plant. Green
leaves were not
inoculated. [Photo by

Local responses
Cessation of cell cycle
Induction of genes that promote resistance
± Phenylpropanoid pathway induced: products include
salicylic acid (secondary inducer: induces other
pathogenesis-related proteins), lignins (cell wall), and
flavonoids
± Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins
± Phytoalexins increased
Fortification of cell walls with lignin,
hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs), etc.
Systemic Response or Systemic
Acquired Resistance (SAR)
