Salicylic acid (SA) is a key plant hormone that mediates host responses against microbial
pathogens. Identification and characterization of SA-interacting/binding proteins is a topic …

Poplar trees synthesize flavan‐3‐ols (catechin and proanthocyanidins) as a defense against
foliar rust fungi, but the regulation of this defense response is poorly understood. Here, we …

Plants and microbes share common metabolic pathways for producing a range of
bioproducts that are potentially foundational to the future bioeconomy. However, in planta …

Nicotiana attenuata has the capacity to respond specifically to herbivory by its natural
herbivore, Manduca sexta, through the perception of elicitors in larval oral secretions. We …

Salicinoids are salicyl alcohol-containing phenolic glycosides with strong antiherbivore
effects found only in poplars and willows. Their biosynthesis is poorly understood, but …

O‐methyltransferases (OMT) are important enzymes that are responsible for the synthesis of
many small molecules, which include lignin monomers, flavonoids, alkaloids, and aroma …

Several phytohormones have been demonstrated to be involved in iron (Fe) homeostasis.
We took advantage of a salicylic acid (SA) biosynthesis defective mutant phytoalexin …

Flavan-3-ols including the monomeric catechin and the polymeric proanthocyanidins (PAs)
are abundant phenolic metabolites in poplar (Populus spp.) previously described to protect …

Salicylic acid (SA) has long been implicated in plant responses to oxidative stress. SA
overproduction in Arabidopsis thaliana leads to dwarfism, making in planta assessment of …

Associations of salicylate-like phenolic glycosides (PGs) with biological activity have been
reported in Salix and Populus trees, but only for a few compounds, and in relation to a …
