Today, food security has become an urgent major global challenge. One important area of research that aims to aid the production of sufficient, safe, and nutritious food has focused on the plant-microbe interaction. Understanding this is an important prerequisite for the development of strategies to protect plants from pathogens and/or to prevent contamination of food witPlant-pathogen relationshipsPhytopathogenic bacteriaPlant-microbe relationshipsPlant-pathogen relationships.Phytopathogenic bacteria.Plant-microbe relationships.632.32Murillo JesúsMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910808838503321Bacteria-plant interactions4051436UNINA
