Plant-parasite coevolution: bridging the gap between genetics and ecology.

Annual review of phytopathology - 1 Jan 2011

Brown James K M, Tellier Aurélien

Abstract excerpt

We review current ideas about coevolution of plants and parasites, particularly processes that generate genetic diversity. Frequencies of host resistance and parasite virulence alleles that interact in gene-for-gene (GFG) relationships coevolve in the familiar boom-and-bust cycle, in which resistance is selected when virulence is rare, and virulence is selected when resistance is common. The cycle can result in...
