Phenylpropanoids and flavonoids are specialized metabolites frequently reported as
involved in plant defense to biotic or abiotic stresses. Their biosynthetic accumulation may …

The cell wall is a dynamic structure that often determines the outcome of the interactions
between plants and pathogens. It is a barrier that pathogens need to breach to colonize the …

Covering: Up to 2019 Phenolic cross-links and phenolic inter-unit linkages result from the
oxidative coupling of two hydroxycinnamates or two molecules of tyrosine. Free dimers of …

F usarium culmorum is a ubiquitous soil‐borne fungus able to cause foot and root rot and F
usarium head blight on different small‐grain cereals, in particular wheat and barley. It …

Because of the complexity of plant cell wall biosynthesis, the mechanisms by which lignin
restrict fiber degradation are poorly understood. Many aspects of grass cell wall lignification …

A transformation in plant cell wall evolution marked the emergence of grasses, grains and
related species that now cover much of the globe. Their tough, less digestible cell walls …

Necrotrophic fungal pathogens of the genus Alternaria are globally recognized as one of the
most destructive plant pathogens in most of the industrially and agriculturally important crops …

In the cell walls of forage grasses, ferulic acid is esterified to arabinoxylans and participates
with lignin monomers in oxidative coupling pathways to generate ferulate–polysaccharide …

A plant cell wall is a highly complex structure consisting of networks of polysaccharides,
proteins, and polyphenols that dynamically change during growth and development in …

With 2 tables Abstract Ear rots caused by different Fusarium spp. are one of the most
dangerous food and feed safety challenges in maize production. At present, the majority of …
