a. Fungal pathogen

c. It can secrete digestive enzymes which are able to break down organic matter.
The fungus absorbs the nutrients of the wheat plant and takes up space.
Reduce the photosynthetic rate of the plant? hm

e. Produce a pesticide that targets the active site of a particular enzyme within the pathogen. Perhaps target an enzyme that is involved in respiration, meaning the pathogen will no longer be able to produce enough energy to live.

1. eumycota
2. maybe through stoma or some break in the wall
3. enzymes that cause tissue necrosis or vascular wilting. cellulases?
4. antifungal drugs would work better, antibiotics are mainly used for bacterial infections.
5. chop off the part that is infected , plants could release a toxin that could prevent fungi from growing or something like that...
