PLANT DISEASES and defences against pathogens and pests

including nutrient deficiency, the spread and analysis of diseases and the reduction and prevention of plant diseases

Doc Brown's biology exam revision study notes

 This page will help you answer questions such as ...   How do plants protect themselves from pathogens?   

What chemical defences can plants employ?   

What physical defences do adapted plants have?   

What methods are used to detect plant diseases?
