Vastustuskykygeeneissä
Vastustuskykygeeneissä, or resistance genes, are a crucial component of the innate immune system in plants and other organisms. These genes play a vital role in recognizing and responding to pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. The products of vastustuskykygeeneissä are often proteins that can detect specific molecules produced by the pathogen, known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or effectors. Upon detection, these resistance proteins trigger a defense response within the host organism.
This defense response can involve a variety of mechanisms. It might include the production of antimicrobial
