Which of the following plant and/or pathogen proteins are involved in the PAMP-triggered defense
Chitin receptors on the plasma membrane of plants
R proteins produced by plants
An effector protein produced by a bacteria
Chitin receptors on the plasma membrane of plants are involved in the PAMP-triggered defense. Plants can recognize chitin which is generally released from the fungal cell walls. This recognition activates defense signalling pathway through pathogen-associated molecular pattern or PAMP.
R proteins or resistance proteins produced by plants activate effector-triggered immunity or ETI, not PAMP-triggered immunity. Effector protein is not involved in PAMP-triggered defense.
