Next to numerous abiotic stresses, plants are constantly exposed to a variety of pathogens
within their environment. Thus, their ability to survive and prosper during the course of …

▪ Abstract Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is a mechanism of induced defense that
confers long-lasting protection against a broad spectrum of microorganisms. SAR requires …

In plants, pathogen attack can induce an immune response known as systemic acquired
resistance that protects against a broad spectrum of pathogens. In the search for safer …

Background By 2050, the world population will increase to 10 billion which urged global
demand for food production to double. Plant disease and land drought will make the …

We investigated the relationships of the two immune-regulatory plant metabolites, salicylic
acid (SA) and pipecolic acid (Pip), in the establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance …

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 …

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

Induced systemic resistance (ISR) of plants against pathogens is a widespread
phenomenon that has been intensively investigated with respect to the underlying signalling …

Intracellular calcium transients during plant–pathogen interactions are necessary early
events leading to local and systemic acquired resistance. Salicylic acid, a critical …

Salicylic acid is an important signal molecule in plant defense. In the past two years,
significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanism of salicylic-acid …
