Journal ArticleDOI
Role of primary metabolites in plant defense against pathogens.
TL;DR: The role of primary metabolites and their mechanism of action in plant defense will be highlighted to highlight the importance of molecular mechanisms involved during the plant-pathogen system for future disease control.

TL;DR: Saponins are secondary metabolic compounds produced in healthy plants with potential anti-pathogenic activity and serve as potential chemical barriers against pathogens as mentioned in this paper, and they are classified into two major groups the steroidal and terpenoid saponins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long non-coding RNAs as molecular players in plant defense against pathogens.
TL;DR: It is hoped that lncRNAs would be exploited as a mainstream player to achieve food security by tackling different plant diseases by exploiting their role in gene expression and silencing pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
