Digalacturonates from pectin degradation induce tissue responses against potato soft rot.
1996-06-01
Abstract excerpt
The pathogenicity of bacterium Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica, which causes potato soft rot, is triggered by short oligogalacturonates released by enzymic degradation of plant cell wall pectin. In the first stage unsaturated digalacturonate (uDG), produced by the action of pectate lyases, is degraded by oligogalacturonide lyase (OGL) to keto-deoxyuronate (DKI). The OGL encoding gene from E. carotovora and t...
