Answer to Question 1

The work plant breeders do to prevent disease in plants is to concentrate on developing the characteristics of the plant that make them more resistant. This involves breeding plants to have more pubescence and a thicker cuticle, and to secrete more pathogen-destroying chemicals.

Answer to Question 2

Trade organizations assist members by providing educational programs and promoting the industry.
