Systems Biology-Based Study for Plant and Phytopathogen Interaction

Volume 5 • Issue 4 • 1000e106 J Plant Pathol Microb ISSN:2157-7471 JPPM, an open access journal With the advent of OMICs techniques, more and more OMICs data across different levels of biological molecular organization (such as the genome, transcriptome, proteome, or metabolome) have been generated [1,2]. It makes the study of biological system or the interaction between biological systems practical. As biotic stress for plants, the influence of phytopathogen including pathogenic bacteria or fungi on plants has attracted more and more attention [3] considering their economic damage on crop yields. From the view of systems biology, many studies have been designed for the interpretation and modelling of host-pathogen interactions [4] to understand pathogenic and defensive mechanisms, however most of the studies have focused predominately on the host or the pathogen part.
