= Plant identification of mutualistic microbes = Prompt: How do plants distinguish pathogens from mutualists?

hhjhjhjh

Pathogen vs. mutualist
=== Continuum of relationship ===

=== Difficulty of distinction ===

Plant response to pathogens
=== Suppress plant immune functioning ex ethylene suppression ===

Plant response to mutualists
=== Timeline of infection ===

==== Infection begins the same as pathogen ====

==== Development into mutualistic symbiosis ====

=== Mutualist limits host damage which minimizes defense response ===

Maintenance of mutualism
=== SSP signaling ===

=== Symbiotic genes ===

=== Evolution of relationship ===
