Alpha cinnamomin elicits a defence response against Phytophthora cinnamomi in Castanea sativa [PDF]
Phytophthora cinnamomi and P. cambivora are considered as the causal agents of Castanea sativa ink disease. These soil-borne plant pathogens invade and destroy the root system leading to the death of the trees. Most Phytophthora species secrete elicitins,
