The Characterization and the Biological Activity of Phytotoxin Produced by Paraphoma radicina [PDF]
Paraphoma radicina is a new pathogen that causes alfalfa paraphoma root rot (APRR), leading to alfalfa production losses. The resistance levels of 30 alfalfa cultivars to APRR have already been characterized.

Structure-activity relationships of synthetic analogs of jasmonic acid and coronatine on induction of benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloid accumulation in Eschscholzia californica cell cultures [PDF]
A facile test system based on the accumulation of benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids in Eschscholzia californica cell suspension culture (an indicator of defense gene activation) has been used to analyze a series of synthetic compounds for elicitor-like ...

The role of octadecanoids and functional mimics in soybean defense responses [PDF]
Oxylipins of the jasmonate pathway and synthetic functional analogs have been analyzed for their elicitor like activities in an assay based on the induced accumulation of glyceollins, the phytoalexins of soybean (Glycine max L.), in cell suspension ...

A Substrate-Activated Efflux Pump, DesABC, Confers Zeamine Resistance to
Zeamines are a family of polyamino phytotoxins produced by Dickeya zeae EC1. These phytotoxins are also potent antibiotics against a range of microorganisms. To understand how D. zeae EC1 can protect itself from the antimicrobial activity of zeamines, we

Effects of Alternaria alternata f.sp. lycopersici toxins on pollen [PDF]
Effects of the phytotoxic compounds (AAL-toxins) isolated from cell-free culture filtrates of Alternaria alternata f.sp. lycopersici on in vitro pollen development were studied. AAL-toxins inhibited both germination and tube growth of pollen from several

Plant pathogens as biocontrol agents of Cirsium arvense : an overestimated approach? [PDF]
Cirsium arvense is one of the worst weeds in agriculture. As herbicides are not very effective and not accepted by organic farming and special habitats, possible biocontrol agents have been investigated since many decades.
