Plant–pathogen interactions induce a signal transmission series that stimulates the plant's
host defense system against pathogens and this, in turn, leads to disease resistance …

The native resistance of most plant species against a wide variety of pathogens is known as
non-host resistance (NHR), which confers durable protection to plant species. Only a few …

Plant diseases cause a huge impact on food security and are of global concern. While
application of agrochemicals is a common approach in the control of plant diseases …

Salicylic acid (SA) is an endogenous growth regulator of phenolic nature and also a
signaling molecule, which participates in the regulation of physiological processes in plants …

Magnaporthe oryzae is the causal agent of rice blast disease, leading to enormous losses of
rice production. Here, we characterized a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor …

Before the upheaval brought about by phylogenetic classification, classical taxonomy
separated living beings into two distinct kingdoms, animals and plants. Rooted in …

The stress-inducible non-proteinogenic amino acid γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is known to
alleviate several (a) biotic stresses in plants. GABA forms an important link between carbon …

Polyamines (PAs) are ubiquitous small aliphatic polycations important for growth,
development, and environmental stress responses in plants. Here, we demonstrate that …

Naturally derived molecules can be used as priming or defense stimulatory agents to protect
against biotic stress. Fructans have gained strong interest due to their ability to induce …

Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant hormone more commonly known by its role in human medicine
than in the field of plant physiology. However, in the last two decades, SA has been …
