Defense Mechanism in Plants (With Diagram) | Botany

In this article we will discuss about the structural and biochemical defense mechanisms in plants I. Structural Defense: In plants some structures are already present to defend the attack while in others, the structures to defend the host develops after the infection. In this way, structural defense can be characterised as (A) Preexisting defense structures and (B) Defense structures developed [...]
