Infection of plants with pathogens like viruses or fungi often leads to a response of the host
ranging from very mild to very severe. A very mild response usually does not result in …

Polyesters occur in higher plants as the structural component of the cuticle that covers the
aerial parts of plants. This insoluble polymer, called cutin, attached to the epidermal cell …

Focusing on the great variety of research being done in the field of postharvest pathology,
this volume presents a collection of topics concerning the diseases of harvested fruits and …

A great deal of research has been focused on the isolation, characterization, and regulation
of expression of pathogenesis-related proteins since the discovery that several of the PR …

Peroxidases are ubiquitous enzymes found in virtually all green plants, many fungi and
aerobic bacteria. The isozymic heterogeneity of peroxidases appears to result from de novo …

The anionic peroxidase associated with the suberization response in potato (Solanum

Induction of peroxidase has been correlated with resistant interactions between rice and
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. To assist in analysis of the role of rice peroxidases in plant …

As a structural feature of specialized cell walls, suberization remains an enigma, despite its
obvious importance both during normal growth and development and as a stress response …
