In incompatible host-pathogen interactions, damage caused by the pathogen remains
restricted as a result of the plant's defensive response. Most effective is the hypersensitive …

Remarkably, only a few low molecular mass signals, including jasmonic acid, ethylene and
salicylic acid, upregulate the expression of scores of defense-related genes. Using these …

An overview of the evolution of knowledge on the nomenclature, classification, induction,
occurrence, functions, and role of pathogenesis-related proteins (PRs) is presented …

The emphasis of modern dormancy research is almost entirely on the form of dormancy that
is acquired during seed development, primary dormancy. Abscisic acid (ABA) appears to be …

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 …

β-1, 3-Glucanase (βGlu) expression in seeds plays important roles in the regulation of seed
germination, dormancy and in the defence against seed pathogens. A thick β-1, 3-glucan …

All organisms have evolved several defence systems in order to protect themselves against
bacteria, fungi and viruses. Higher organisms have developed a complex network of …

Pathogenesis-related proteins were first observed as new protein components induced by
tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in hypersensitively reacting tobacco. 1, 2 This discovery was a …

A receptor-like kinase, SRK, has been implicated in the autoincompatible response that
leads to the rejection of self-pollen in Brassica plants. SRK is encoded by one member of a …
