Induction of resistance to Penicillium digitatum in grapefruit by beta-aminobutyric acid

2003-11-01

Abstract excerpt

beta-Aminobutyric acid (BABA), an inducer of pathogen resistance in plants, induced disease resistance in reproductive parts of the plant, such as grapefruit peel tissue. Application of BABA to specific wound sites on the fruit peel surface induced resistance to Penicillium digitatum, the main postharvest pathogen of citrus fruit, in a concentration-dependent manner, being most effective at 20 mM, and rather less...
