Bacterial pathogens deliberately commandeer tiny droplet-like structures in plant cells, known as processing bodies (P-bodies), to shut down the host's protein synthesis. This targeted disruption prevents the plant from manufacturing the vital proteins needed to mount an effective immune response against the infiltrating microbes.

How Bacteria Circumvent Plants’ Immune System

Bacteria deactivate the protein synthesis of host cells to hamper immune reactions. This insight could aid in the development of more resistant plants
