Summary
The
Gene-for-Gene Hypothesis
describes the
Interaction between specific genes
in a
Host plant
and
Corresponding genes
in a pathogen, where
Resistance in the host
is triggered by the
Recognition of pathogen avirulence genes
. This model explains how
Genetic resistance in plants
can be overcome by
Pathogen Evolution
, leading to a continuous
Arms race between host and pathogen
.
