Definition and 1 or 2 examples of the following associations : Symbiosis : Commensalism, Mutualism, Parasitism. The establishment of infection is mediated by virulence factors, which can be generally defined as bacterial products or strategies that contribute to the ability of the bacterium to cause disease. In plants, many different species have a direct social impact through such problems as food production, biofuels and ecological services. In the past 20 years, genetic and genomic research have largely focused on a few strategically chosen models but, The ability to create inbred lines and easily share seed stocks makes plants a potential exemplar for large-scale genome annotation by association, with the same genotypes easily scored for multiple phenotypes. Mark Brundrett's web site provides an excellent introduction to the different types of mycorrhizal symbioses. Most bacterial virulence factors were Ochman H, Moran NA (2001) Genes lost and genes found: Evolution of bacterial pathogenesis and symbiosis . Biological controls play a major role in insect pest management in organic and sustainable farming systems, and in biointensive Integrated Pest Management as described by Dufour (2001). Origin, development and scope of Botany 2. Classification of plant kingdom ( outlines only ) 3. Structure, Life cycle, Pathogenesis and prophylaxis of the following parasites :. In AM association, the fungal hyphae penetrates host roots to form intracellular arbuscules and vesicles. Myrmecophily is a charismatic biological phenomenon that defines the associations, whether casual or intimate, of various organisms with ants.

While these behavioral classifications provide a rich foundation for the study of ant-beetle symbioses, the application of these systems in future studies may be less than effective. Actinorhizal plants have the ability to form root nodules in symbiotic association with the soil actinomycete Frankia and are capable of high rates of nitrogen fixation, comparable to those of legumes [1–3]. I hope these notes are sufficient to raise a number of questions about the symbiosis and bargains being struck .
