Salicylic acid (SA) is an important signal molecule in plants. Two pathways of SA
biosynthesis have been proposed in plants. Biochemical studies using isotope feeding have …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone that is best known for mediating host
responses upon pathogen infection. Its role in plant defense activation is well established …

Salicylic acid (SA) plays a central role as a signalling molecule involved in plant defense
against microbial attack. Genetic manipulation of SA biosynthesis may therefore help to …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important phytohormone mediating both local and systemic defense
responses in plants. Despite over half a century of research, how plants biosynthesize SA …

The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) regulates biotic and abiotic stress responses in plants.
Two distinct biosynthetic pathways for SA have been well documented in plants: the …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone with a critical role in plant defense against
pathogen infection. Despite extensive research over the past 30 year or so, SA biosynthesis …

Salicylic acid (SA) has been shown to regulate various aspects of growth and development;
it also serves as a critical signal for activating disease resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana and …

Plant Biotechnology 21(5), 319–335 (2004) Page 1 Salicylic acid (SA) that was named after
Salix plant (willow), was first discovered as a major component in the extracts from willow …

Salicylic acid (SA), an essential regulator of plant defense, is derived from chorismate via
either the phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) or the isochorismate synthase (ICS) …

Salicylic acid is an important regulator of induced plant resistance to pathogens.
Consequently, the biosynthesis of salicylic acid and its regulation has received a lot of …
