Full Description
This exam investigates the physiological responses of plants to biotic stresses such as pests and pathogens. Key topics include defense signaling, the role of phytohormones, and systemic acquired resistance.
Understanding plant responses to biotic stresses is essential for developing effective pest management strategies and enhancing crop resilience. This knowledge is vital in the context of increasing biotic threats to global food security.
Candidates will articulate the mechanisms by which plants recognize and respond to biotic stressors, including the roles of reactive oxygen species and phytoalexins. Verbal communication will be assessed for clarity and comprehension.
The implications of these physiological responses for sustainable agricultural practices will also be a key focus, promoting an understanding of integrated pest management.
Sample Questions
- How do reactive oxygen species function in plant defense against pathogens?
- What is the role of phytohormones in plant responses to pest attacks?
