▪ Abstract 

The xenognostic mechanisms of two multi-host pathogens, the causative agent of crown gall tumors and the parasitic plant , are compared. Both organisms are general plant pathogens and require similar information prior to host commitment. Two mechanistic strategies, chemical perception and metabolic complementation, are used to ensure successful host commitment. The critical reactions at host-parasite contact are proton and electron transfer events. Such strategies may be common among multi-host pathogens.
