Abstract excerpt
The plant immune response known as systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is a general defense mechanism that confers long-lasting resistance against a broad spectrum of pathogens. SAR triggers many molecular changes including accumulation of antimicrobial pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. Transcription of PR genes in Arabidopsis is regulated by the coactivator NPR1 and the repressor SNI1. Pathogen infection also...
