Abstract
The problem of the resistance of plants to fungal or bacterial attack is of great practical importance. If the nature of resistance of a particular plant to a particular pathogen is understood, the plant breeder may be better able to combine the factors for resistance to disease with other desirable characters and so produce a resistant variety of higher quality. This, when it can be done, is usually the most satisfactory method of controlling disease.
