Abstract

A series of early studies by N.I. Vavilov was devoted to the problem of plant immunity to infectious diseases. It began with the study of cereals’ resistance to parasitic fungi and ended with the monograph "Plant Immunity to infectious diseases." The patterns in the distribution of physiological immunity were described for the first time based on the analysis of a huge collection of plant varieties.
