In this article we will discuss about how do plants protect and defend themselves from pathogens and diseases. Introduction to Pathogens: Once a pathogen has arrived in the vicinity of a potential host plant or, as may happen in the case of soil-borne pathogens, a plant root has arrived in the vicinity of a pathogen, subsequent events depend on the [...]
The following article will guide you about how methanogens produce methane. The methanogens are known to possess new coenzymes and pathway which use hydrogen to reduce carbon dioxide or in some cases acetate to produce methane. Decomposition of cellulosic plant residues in swamps, bogs and digestive tracts of animals is brought about in nature by methanogenic bacteria. The main metabolic [...]
