stimulated in various plants in response to infection
with fungal pathogens and have correlation with
increased resistance.
5 Conclusions
A prolonged solution to control plant diseases is only
the development of resistant varieties because chemical
control is not ecosystem friendly and biological control
is tedious and intricate to management point of view.
Various molecular approaches to confer resistance
against many fungal and bacterial pathogens have been
conjure up such as the use of antimicrobial proteins
genes that inactivate pathogenicity natural disease
resistance genes, phytoalexins, and antimicrobial
peptides and many of these genes have been effectively
utilized to control plant bacterial and fungal infections.
