2026-07-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> L-phenylalanine (Phe) is converted via the phenylpropanoid pathway into phenolic compounds, and elevated phenolic/flavonoid levels are generally associated with enhanced plant resistance. We previously showed that exogenous Phe suppresses the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea in petunia, chrysanthemum, determinant tomato, and several postharvest diseases. Here, we expanded evaluation to a br...
