Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) refers to a distinct signal transduction pathway that plays an important role in the ability of plants to defend themselves against pathogens. SAR activation results in the development of broad spectrum, long lasting resistance in a manner comparable to immunization in mammals, although the underlyn mechanism is differ. This paper examines the practical applicability of SAR. Discussed here are the use of infectious agents and chemical compounds in SAR induction, how can immunization be used to control disease of crop plants in the field, what are advantages and disadvantages of SAR, where we are today and possible directions for future
