ARABIDOPSIS IS A SUPERB MODEL FOR THE STUDY OF AN IMPORTANT SUBGROUP OF OXYLIPINS: the jasmonates. Jasmonates control many responses to cell damage and invasion and are essential for reproduction. Jasmonic acid (JA) is a prohormone and is conjugated to hydrophobic amino acids to produce regulatory ligands.

Emerging Jasmonate Transporters [PDF]
Jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) are highly mobile and, when applied to intact plants, these compounds powerfully modulate gene expression. Moreover, activation of jasmonate-responsive genes usually occurs in tissues distal to the treatments.

The wound hormone jasmonate [PDF]
Plant tissues are highly vulnerable to injury by herbivores, pathogens, mechanical stress, and other environmental insults. Optimal plant fitness in the face of these threats relies on complex signal transduction networks that link damage-associated signals to appropriate changes in metabolism, growth, and development.

Jasmonate – a blooming decade [PDF]
The plant hormone jasmonate not only helps plants to defend against necrotrophic fungi and insect attacks, but also regulates many growth and developmental events. The landmark breakthrough in research in this field was the identification of JAZ proteins in 2007, providing the long-sought central signalling molecules bridging perception to downstream ...

Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are a class of cholesterol-derived anti-nutritional defense compound that are produced in species of the genus Solanum, such as tomato (S. lycopersicum), potato (S. tuberosum), and eggplant (S. melongena).

The Jasmonate Signal Pathway [PDF]
Plant responses to many biotic and abiotic stresses are orchestrated locally and systemically by signaling molecules known as the jasmonates (JAs). JAs also regulate such diverse processes as pollen maturation and wound responses in Arabidopsis.

Piriformospora indica (P. indica) is a mutualistic endophyte that colonizes plant roots. In this study, effects of P. indica on rice resistance against rice leaffolder (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis Guenée) were investigated. Growth inhibition and leaf injury

Insights Into the Mechanisms Implicated in Pinus pinaster Resistance to Pinewood Nematode
Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by the plant–parasitic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, has become a severe environmental problem in the Iberian Peninsula with devastating effects in Pinus pinaster forests.
