Disease invasion and prevention in the presence of phosphite:
Pathogen is affected by phosphite
Suppressors either under or not produced
Recognition of disease by plant cell
Phosphite encourages defensive molecules, such as phytoalexins and PR proteins, to attack the disease directly
Defensive molecules send “alarm signals” to cells that have not yet been attacked, then Polysaccharides strengthen the cell wall adding additional protection
Disease is limited or killed by plant response
