Since salicylic acid (SA) was discovered as an elicitor of tobacco plants inducing the
resistance against Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in 1979, increasing reports suggest that SA …

It is well recognized that salicylic acid (SA) acts as a natural signaling molecule involved in
both local and systemic plant defense responses upon attacks by pathogens. Recently …

The role of salicylic acid (SA) as a key molecule in the signal transduction pathway of biotic
stress responses has already been well described. Recent studies indicate that it also …

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) is a central plant hormone mediating immunity, growth, and development.
Recently, studies have highlighted the sensitivity of the SA pathway to changing climatic …

The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is a central regulator of plant immunity. Antagonistic
and synergistic actions between SA and other defense-associated hormones like jasmonic …

A multitude of biotic and abiotic stress factors do harm to plants by bringing about diseases
and inhibiting normal growth and development. As a pivotal signaling molecule, salicylic …

Any interaction of plants with phytopathogens involves the generation of various chemical
molecules that are critical for activation of their defense machinery. One of the chemicals …

The phytohormone salicylic acid (SA) is a small phenolic compound that regulates diverse
physiological processes, in particular plant resistance against pathogens. Understanding SA …

Being sessile, plants are exposed to invasion by numerous pathogens and have developed
a vast array of defense mechanisms to ward off these invasions. Perception of pathogen …
