Progresses of the Plant Lesion Mimic Mutation

Plant lesion mimic mutation(LMM) is a kind of mutants which can spontaneously form disease lesions under the conditions of no apparent injury,stress or pathogen infection.The LMM related to the disease-resistance and hypersensitive response(HR) of plant.The features and forming mechanism of LMM were summarized to provide references for revealing HR and the molecular level mechanism of disease-resistance of HR.
