A response to non-pathogenic bacteria that confers broad spectrum systemic resistance to disease that does not depend upon salicylic acid signaling. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation). The promotion of an immune response by natural killer cells through direct recognition of target cells or through the release of cytokines. A response of a plant to a pathogenic agent that prevents the occurrence or spread of disease. Reactions, triggered in response to the presence of a foreign body or the occurrence of an injury, which result in restriction of damage to the organism attacked or prevention/recovery from the infection caused by the attack. The rapid, localized death of plant cells in response to invasion by a pathogen. Any process involved in the activation of any of the steps of the lectin pathway of the complement cascade which allows for the direct killing of microbes and the regulation of other immune processes. Any process of the innate immune response that takes place in the mucosal tissues. Specific posttranscriptional gene inactivation ('silencing') both of viral gene(s), and host gene(s) homologous to the viral genes. This silencing is triggered by viral infection, and occurs through a specific decrease in the level of mRNA of both host and viral genes. Any process involved in the activation of any of the steps of the alternative pathway of the complement cascade which allows for the direct killing of microbes and the regulation of other immune processes. A MAPKKK cascade culminating in the phosphorylation and activation of a MAP kinase that occurs in the context of an innate immune response, a defense response mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens. Any process by which factors in the hemolymph (the invertebrate equivalent of vertebrate blood and lymph) precipitate into insoluble clots in order to prevent loss of body fluid, and at the same time prevent the movement of microbes. Hemolymph coagulation is also part of the invertebrate humoral immune response. Any immune system process that functions in the calibrated response of an organism to a potential internal or invasive threat. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the innate immune response, the organism's first line of defense against infection. Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the innate immune response, the organism's first line of defense against infection. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a type III interferon stimulus. Type III interferons are members of the interferon-lambda gene family. The blackening of the wounded area of the cuticle or the surface of invading pathogens, parasites or parasitoids, resulting from a proteolytic cascade leading to the de novo synthesis and deposition of melanin. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a type I interferon stimulus. Type I interferons include the interferon-alpha, beta, delta, episilon, zeta, kappa, tau, and omega gene families. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an interferon-gamma stimulus. Interferon-gamma is also known as type II interferon. A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the innate immune response. Any process involved in the development or functioning of the immune system, an organismal system for calibrated responses to potential internal or invasive threats.
