Abstract excerpt
Intracellular free amino acid pools were quantified in suspension cultured cells of a blast-sensitive and a blast-resistant rice genotype at increasing times after treatment with Magnaporthe oryzae cell wall hydrolysates. Besides some expected variations in free phenylalanine, a remarkable early increase of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels was evident in both cultivars. Glutamate decarboxylase activity and...
