Study of phytopathogenic bacterial species in immune response of plants

This project was proposed to evaluate the viability of bacteria-derived nanovesicles (BDNs) in eliciting host immune responses. Gram-negative bacteria were both chosen as their naturally released outer membrane vesicles were shown to be capable of eliciting host immune response in plant seedlings. T...
