A 90 kDa protein elicitor, PB90, was purified from the culture filtrate of Phytophthora
boehmeriae. Procedures including hydrophobic interaction and ion-exchange …

P. infestans co-transformants increased their ability to cause a hypersensitive-response-like
necrosis of tobacco leaves. It was thus concluded that the transfer of a single gene encoding …

We examined the role of salicylic acid (SA) accumulation in the tobacco hypersensitive
response (HR) and systemic acquired resistance (SAR) induced by PB90, a 90kDa protein …

In tomato plants systemic acquired resistance (SAR) against late blight caused by
Phytophthora infestans was induced by pre‐treatment with a chemical inducer, dl‐3 …

An elicitor was identified in the fungus Phytophthora colocasiae. The molecular weight of the
purified elicitor was estimated by means of gel filtration chromatography and SDS-PAGE …

The protein elicitor PB90 secreted by Phytophthora boehmeriae is an efficient elicitor
inducing the hypersensitive response and systemic acquired resistance in tobacco plants …

ABSTRACT A glycoprotein of 34 kDa (GP 34) was solubilized at acidic pH from the
mycelium of Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae and was purified by ion exchange and …

Elicitins, small proteins secreted by Phytophthora and Pythium spp., display the ability to
induce plant resistance toward pathogens. Ultrastructural investigations of cryptogein …

RESULTS Host-specificity of elicitins. The various fungal and bacterial strains used in this
study are summarized in Table 1. Elicitins were purified from the culture filtrates of P …

Elicitins and a glycoprotein produced by the H20 strain of Phytophthora megasperma are
elicitors of the hypersensitive response in tobacco. Structural relationships between elicitins …
