The Plant Growth-Promoting Fungus Aspergillus ustus Promotes Growth and Induces Resistance Against Different Lifestyle Pathogens in Arabidopsis thaliana
1 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
To deal with pathogens, plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms including constitutive and induced defense mechanisms. Phytohormones play important roles in plant growth and development, as well as in the systemic response induced by beneficial and pathogen microorganisms. In this work, we identified an Aspergillus ustus isolate that promotes growth and induces developmental changes in Solanum tuberosum and...
