Induction of disease resistance against Botrytis cinerea by heat shock treatment in melon (Cucumis melo L.)
2011-04-01
Abstract excerpt
The present study investigated resistance against Botrytis cinerea after heat shock treatment in melon plants. Heat shock at 50°C for 20s 0â24h before inoculation resulted in maximal B. cinerea symptom reduction and peroxidase gene expression, which peaked 12 and 72h post-treatment and decreased 24â48h post-treatment, suggesting pathogenesis-related protein expression priming. Hot water dipping did not direc...
