Cerato‐platanin proteins (CP s), which are secreted by filamentous fungi, are phytotoxic to
host plants, but their functions have not been well defined to date. Here we characterized a …

Sulfated laminarin (PS3) has been shown previously to be an elicitor of plant defense
reactions in tobacco and Arabidopsis and to induce protection against tobacco mosaic virus …

A plant's defense against pathogens involves an extensive set of phytohormone regulated
defense signaling pathways. The salicylic acid (SA)-signaling pathway is one of the most …

Although there are thousands of plant pathogens, individual plant species are infected by
only a small percentage of the pathogens that exist in nature. This suggests that plants are …

Induced resistance by chemicals such as acibenzolar-S-methyl-ASM (commercialized as
Actigard by Syngenta Inc) mimics the biological activation of systemic acquired resistance …

Phytoprostanes are prostaglandin/jasmonate-like products of nonenzymatic lipid
peroxidation that not only occur ubiquitously in healthy plants but also increase in response …

In this study, we compared interactions of two Melampsora foliar rust species with poplar,
which resulted in either limited or abundant pathogen proliferation. In the pathosystem …

The non-protein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) protects numerous plants against
various pathogens. Protection of Arabidopsis plants against virulent pathogens involves the …

Fusarium wilt disease is one of the major diseases causing a decline in watermelon yield
and quality. Researches have informed that phytohormones play essential roles in …

Sphaerulina musiva is an economically and ecologically important fungal pathogen that
causes Septoria stem canker and leaf spot disease of Populus species. To bridge the gap …
