Foliar spray of a cell wall protein fraction from the biocontrol agent Pythium oligandrum induces defence-related genes and increases resistance against Cercospora leaf spot in sugar beet
2009-10-01
Abstract excerpt
After a cell wall protein fraction (CWP) of Pythium oligandrum was sprayed on sugar beet leaves, we screened leaves for induced expression of defence-related genes and for resistance against Cercospora leaf spot. In a western blot analysis, the CWP was primarily retained on the surface of leaves without degradation for at least 48 h after spraying. In northern blot analyses, four defence-related genes (β-1, 3-gluc...
