Abstract excerpt
The hypersensitive response (HR) was induced in a wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana plant (Columbia) (Col-wt) by inoculation with Alternaria brassicicola that causes the development of small brown necrotic lesions on the leaves. By contrast, pad3-1 mutants challenged with A. brassicicola produced spreading lesions. The cell death in pad3-1 mutants could not inhibit the pathogen growth and development, although both...
