自世纪之交以来，植物育种家已经使用抗病基因（R基因）来控制植物病害。使植物能够抵抗多种病原体的R基因的分子克隆揭示了这些基因编码的蛋白质具有几个共同特征。这些发现表明，植物可能已经进化出共同的信号转导机制，表达对广泛的不相关病原体的抗性。表征参与病原体识别的分子信号和指定抗性表达的分子事件可能导致植物病害控制的新策略。
Plant breeders have used disease resistance genes (R genes) to control plant disease since the turn of the century. Molecular cloning of R genes that enable plants to resist a diverse range of pathogens has revealed that the proteins encoded by these genes have several features in common. These findings suggest that plants may have evolved common signal transduction mechanisms for the expression of resistance to a wide range of unrelated pathogens. Characterization of the molecular signals involved in pathogen recognition and of the molecular events that specify the expression of resistance may lead to novel strategies for plant disease control.
