Induction of resistance in barley against Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei by free cutin monomers
1996-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Enzymatic degradation of plant cuticles at sites of fungal attack may release free cutin monomers. The hypothesis that free cutin monomers are signals for the activation of plant defence reactions was tested in the interaction of barley with the fungal pathogen Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei. Topical spray application of cutin monomers partially protected leaves of a highly susceptible barley cultivar against E. g...
