Roles of the vacuole in plant responses to biotic stresses. Plant vacuoles have important roles in resistance to microbial invasion. They mediate two types of programmed cell death (PCD) to eliminate microorganisms from plant cells. Some microorganisms can avoid these elimination strategies and change the morphology and function of plant cells. This model includes information about the PCD process and three types of bacteria
