Abstract excerpt

Jasmonic acid has properties of a plant hormone, including the induction of specific genes associated with plant defense. We previously described jar1-1, an Arabidopsis jasmonate response mutant that exhibits reduced sensitivity to methyl jasmonate. We have further characterized this mutant and t...
