Disease Resistance-Genes and Defense Responses During Incompatible Interactions

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Genomics and Molecular Genetics of Plant-Nematode Interactions

Abstract

After World War II, the application of pesticides became the method of choice for controlling plant diseases, including diseases caused by nematodes. In the last two decades however, the use of some nematicides has been banned restricting the options available for farmers to combat diseases caused by nematodes. In spite of the need for alternatives to chemicals for controlling nematodes, limited information exists about nematode disease resistance (R)-genes, plant defense signaling networks and defense mechanisms. The lack of genetic and genomic resources in crop systems has hampered progress in this field. Data from transcriptional profiling of genes regulated in the incompatible host crop-sedentary nematode interactions are becoming available. However, no clear resistance signal transduction networks have been identified. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing and gene expression profiling combined with novel gene silencing approaches have the potential to accelerate progress in this discipline and to provide better understanding of defense signaling pathways in incompatible host-nematode interactions.
