Plant infectious diseases lead to considerable damage; hence, the causes of microorganism infectivity are of considerable interest. According to the active susceptibility hypothesis, infectivity is not a microorganismsâ?? property but rather the hostâ??s capacity for attracting the microbial flora whose properties are useful for the host with normal host-microorganism interactions being mutualistic and infectious diseases resulting from disturbance of these interactions. The microorganismsâ?? usefulness is obviously determined by the genes whose products are necessary for the host. Therefore, integration of these microbial genes into the plant genome is expected to render the plants infection-resistant: The plant will receive the necessary microbial gene products and hence, will not develop susceptibility to these microorganisms.
