Abotanist is studying the effects of different oomycete species on potato plants. she exposes one set of plants to an oomycete species having several avirulence (avr) proteins. she exposes another set of plants to an oomycete species having a single avr protein. what do you expect will be the results of her experiment?
a. mortality will be higher in plants exposed to the oomycete species
b. having several avr proteins.
c. mortality rates will be the same.

Option (a).

Explanation:

The botanist may be defined as the individual who does the complete study about the plants. The physical condition and environmental condition that affect the plants are studied by the botanist.

The botanist has expressed the potato plant in two different condition as explained in the question. AVR protein can cause the death of the plants. The mortality or death rate will be higher in those plants that are exposed to the oomycete species as this species will produce the large amount of protein that causes the mortality in plants.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
