In natural conditions, plants are subjected to a combination of biotic stresses and often have
to cope with simultaneous pathogen infections. In this report, we aim to understand the …

Powdery mildew (PM) is a severe fungal disease of cultivated grapevine world‐wide.
Proanthocyanidins (PAs) play an important role in resistance to fungal pathogens; however …

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 …

Phenolics have been in the center of many discoveries on plant defenses to pathogens,
including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. More recently, this fascinating group of metabolites …

Rhizobacteria are known to induce defense responses in plants without causing disease
symptoms, resulting in increased resistance to plant pathogens. This study investigated how …

Powdery mildew (PM), caused by the fungal pathogen Erysiphe necator, is one of the most
destructive diseases of grapevine (Vitis vinifera and other Vitis spp.). Resistance to PM is an …

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is susceptible to many pathogens which cause significant losses to
viticulture worldwide. Chemical control is available, but agro-ecological concerns have …

Capsidiol is a sesquiterpenoid phytoalexin produced in Nicotiana and Capsicum species in
response to pathogen attack. Whether capsidiol plays a defensive role and how its …

Ralstonia solanacearum thrives in plant xylem vessels and causes bacterial wilt disease
despite the low nutrient content of xylem sap. We found that R. solanacearum manipulates …

Flowers are the most vulnerable plant organ to infection by the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis
cinerea. Here we show that pre‐treatment of chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) …
