摘要
Necrotrophic fungi, being the largest class of fungal plant pathogens, pose a serious economic problem to crop production. They are the cause of heavy losses in agriculture worldwide. Understanding the process of plant infection by necrotrophic fungi, including subtle interaction networks connecting such evolutionarily distinct organisms has recently been given high research priority. Such studies are now possible mainly because of the utility of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. A. thaliana has a sequenced genome and thousands of mutants available, allowing investigation of virtually all aspects of plant pathogenesis. This review focuses on morphological and molecular changes in A. thaliana, which occur during response to infection by necrotrophic fungi. These responses in relation to resistance and susceptibility of the plant will be discussed.
