Pathogenesis-Related Proteins (PRs) with Enzyme Activity Activating Plant Defense Responses

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Throughout evolution, plants have developed a highly complex defense system against different threats, including phytopathogens. Plant defense depends on constitutive and induced factors combined as defense mechanisms.

Arabidopsis defense against Botrytis cinerea : chronology and regulation deciphered by high-resolution temporal transcriptomic analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Transcriptional reprogramming forms a major part of a plant’s response to pathogen infection. Many individual components and pathways operating during plant defense have been identified, but our knowledge of how these different components interact is ...

Impacts of nitrogen on plant disease severity and plant defense mechanism

open access: yesFundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2020
Nitrogen(N) is considered the most important factor to help the growth and development of plants. This is the building block for plant protoplasm and the chlorophyll molecule component for the photosynthesis process as well.

AM fungal colonization minimizes disease damage on tomato during later life stages while delaying fruit development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Beneficial soil microbes, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, can help prepare plants for defense through a mechanism known as priming. Two of the most important unresolved questions in the field of AM fungal-mediated plant defense are (1) whether

The cuticle and plant defense to pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The cuticle provides a physical barrier against water loss and protects against irradiation, xenobiotics, and pathogens. Components of the cuticle are perceived by invading fungi and activate developmental processes during pathogenesis. In addition, cuticle alterations of various types induce a syndrome of reactions that often results in resistance to ...

Analyzing plant defenses in nature [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Signaling & Behavior, 2009
A broad range of chemical plant defenses against herbivores has been studied extensively under laboratory conditions. In many of these cases there is still little understanding of their relevance in nature. In natural systems, functional analyses of plant traits are often complicated by an extreme variability, which affects the interaction with higher ...

An ectomycorrhizal fungus alters sensitivity to jasmonate, salicylate, gibberellin, and ethylene in host roots. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The phytohormones jasmonate, gibberellin, salicylate, and ethylene regulate an interconnected reprogramming network integrating root development with plant responses against microbes.

Transmethylation and the general defense reaction of plants

open access: yesInternational Journal of Horticultural Science, 2007
Plant breeding for resistance, namely building specific resistance genes into cultivated plants to ensure resistance against certain pathogen species, is a several-decade-long practice.

Genome-wide dynamic network analysis reveals the potential genes for MeJA-induced growth-to-defense transition

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Methyl jasmonate (MeJA), which has been identified as a lipid-derived stress hormone, mediates plant resistance to biotic/abiotic stress.

Local ciliate communities associated with aquatic macrophytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study, based within the catchment area of the River Frome, an important chalk stream in the south of England, compared ciliated protozoan communities associated with three species of aquatic macrophyte common to lotic habitats: Ranunculus ...
