This study reports the mode of action of acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) against Japanese pear
scab, caused by Venturia nashicola. Pretreatment of potted Japanese pear trees with ASM …

Pretreatment of leaves of the Japanese pear plant with the synthetic SAR activator
acibenzolar‐S‐methyl (ASM) significantly reduced the severity of scab caused by the fungal …

In order to determine if differences in timing or levels of gene and enzyme activations were
likely to account for differences in resistance of pear cultivars against Japanese pear scab …

The infection behavior of Japanese pear scab pathogen Venturia nashicola race 1 was
studied ultrastructurally in acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM)-pretreated susceptible Japanese …

Systemic acquired resistance(SAR) is an inducible defense mechanism that plays a central
role in plant disease resistance and can be induced by different compounds. In this study …

Poplar canker, mainly caused by Botryosphaeria species, is a serious disease that has
resulted in the reduced productivity and death of poplar worldwide. Different Populus …

Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) of plants induced upon infection with a necrotizing
pathogen, is characterised by an enhanced capacity to induce cellular defence responses to …

In this study, the effects of two elicitors (potassium phosphite and chitosan) on apple scab
(Venturia inaequalis) and their ability to modulate plant defences were assessed. Potassium …

The salicylic acid (SA) plays a critical role during the establishment of systemic acquired
resistance (SAR) in uninfected plant tissues after localised exposure to a pathogen. Here …

Scab, caused by Venturia nashicola, is among the most serious diseases of Asian pears and
control of this disease largely relies on sterol demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicides …
