Plants donot have an adptive immune system- antibodies and T cell responses in higher mammals- but they have an innate defense mechanism which could also be inducible.
Like animals, plants can recognize PAMPs (pathogen associated molecular pattern) using PRRs (pattern recognition receptors). plant PRRs are similar to Toll like receptors in having a LRR (leu rich repeat) and TIR (toll Interleukin-1) domains. Plants also p...]]> Fri, 10 Oct 2008 13:23:03 GMT http://www.scientistsolutions.com/t7084-do+plants+have+immunity_.html http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/newton/askasci/1993/biology/bio035.htm
