Soil applications of acibenzolar-S-methyl induce defense gene expression in tomato plants against bacterial spot
2018-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM), a plant activator known to induce plant resistance, has been used as foliar sprays to manage several plant diseases including bacterial spot on tomato caused by four distinct Xanthomonas species. This study aimed to investigate the effects of soil application rates of ASM on bacterial spot of tomato and the expression levels of the two pathogenesis-related (PR) genes, PR1a and PR1b, in...
