Protein – protein concept
&
immunization basis
• Protein for protein hypothesis –biochemical
explanation of gene for gene hypothesis
• These concepts explain how a host (plant) recognize
their pathogen and suppress its further growth
• (H. Flor, 1942) - For each resistance gene in the host
there is a corresponding gene for avirulence in the
pathogen conferring resistance and viceversa
• “Avr” genes present in pathogen helps the host plant to
trigger its defensive mechanisms
Recognition between host and
pathogen
• When a pathogen comes in contact with host cell
, an early event takes place, triggers a rapid
response, either allows or prevent growth of
pathogen and development of disease
• “Early events “ - biochemical substance,
structures & pathogen elicitor molecule , these
components induce specific actions or formation
of specific products by other organisms
Pathogen genotype Host genotype
R r
A — A R + A r
a + a R + a r
A - pathogen with dominant a-virulent gene- produce elicitor
molecule
a- recessive a-virulent gene
R – host with dominant resistant gene – produce receptor
molecule
r - host with recessive resistant gene
+ compatible reaction
— incompatible reaction
Explanation of G-G hypothesis
• Pathogen has gen: pathogencity gene & specific Avr gene A
or a
• A a
Produce no elicitor
an elicitor
Host with Rgene
Produce
a receptor
Host receptor
recognize pathogen elicitor and
Triggers defense reaction receptor find no
elicitor ,so no defence

Host with rgene
Produce host with rgene
no receptor
Lack receptor
No defence mechanism triggered
Host lacks resistance to this pathogen’s virulence genes
no receptor ,so no

Biochemical explanation for G-G
concept –Protein –protein concept
• There are two explanation for P-P concept
• According to first specificity in gene for gene
systems lies in susceptibility (Van der Plank,
1978)
• whereas to other specificity lies in resistance
(Ellingboe, 1981).
• According to Van der Plank (1978), specificity in gene –
for- gene relationships lies in susceptibility.
• He explains it with the help of interactions of five host
and five pathogens attacking them specifically.
• Suppose there are five host varieties with five different
R genes; R1, R2, R3----------R5.
• A plant with resistance gene R1 is attacked by a
pathogen having virulence gene a1 and not to
pathogen without this particular resistance gene
irrespective of how many the virulence genes it may
have.
Pathogen plant

a2 a2 S
a3 a3 S
a4 a4 S
a5 a5 S
• Resistance is assumed to be dominant and RR
can be replaced by Rr.
• Virulence is assumed to be recessive.
However, recessive resistance and dominant
virulence are also known. R= resistant S=
suscep
• Vander Plank (1978) elaborated protein for
proteins hypothesis as a biochemical
explanation of gene for gene interaction.
• The protein for protein hypothesis states that
in gene -for -gene diseases the mutual
recognition of host and pathogen is not by the
genes themselves but by their coded proteins.
• Vander Plank (1978) hypothesized that in susceptibility the
pathogen excretes a protein (virulence for product) into the host
cell which copolymerizes with a complementary host protein
(resistance gene product).
• This co-polymerization interferes with one auto regulation of the
host gene that codes for the protein used by pathogen as a food
and by so doing turns the gene on to produce more protein.
• In resistance, the protein specified by the gene for avirulence in the
pathogen and excreted into the host does not polymerize with the
protein coded for by the gene for resistance.
• It is not recognized by the host at all.
Antigenic relation b/w host and
pathogen
• Compatible reaction = susceptibilty , in such situations
protein/ antigen pd by Path is similar to antigen pd by host
• Boubly et al 1960 conducted expt. on Flax – Melamspora
lini system.(rust causing path)
4 var of flax and 4 isolates if M.lini
• From serological studies –titers of rust anti sera & Flax
antigen / protein are similar (1:60)
• Resistant reaction -1:20 less common antigens
• De vay et al 1972 - that tolerance of parasite by host
increases with increasing protein / antigenic similarity ,
Resistance is chara by increasing disparity
• antigen common to host and pathogen implies –
genetic similarity & vice versa
• More the matching of host genes by pathogen more
susceptibilty
• Eg:- Ustilago maidis shares similar antigen with oat
seedlings, so that it can penetrate
