the defence of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana against various pathogens. The time-line of the course will mirror the multi-layered arrangement of the immunity, starting from the constitutively existing surface barriers, via various receptor-ligand and effector-target activations, to the guardee-resistance proteins interactions, leading to a final decision on resistance or sensitivity, life or death. Restriction of the immunity study to one model plant might help to better understand this complicated and densely branched net of sometimes counterintuitive reactions and responses, that are constantly co-evolving along with the pathogen infection strategies, and are adjusted to the needs of plants for growth and development. |

We would like this course to uncover all aspects of molecular defence capacity of A. thaliana, enabling students to integrate knowledge concerning plant developmental functions and specialized responses to biotic stress. The practical part of the course would provide students experience with basics of laboratory methods, plant cultivation in vitro and in soil, and phytopathological practices. |
