In contrast to previous assumptions, the defense hormones salicylic acid and jasmonic acid do not always suppress each other in regulating plant chemical defenses against pests and pathogens. In trees ...
The Secret Language of Plant Stress Signals When plants face stress, they activate a signaling cascade involving multiple ...
Background and aims Salicylic acid (SA) plays vital roles in the stress response of plants. However, the relationship between SA signaling and plant tolerance to nZnO stress has not been reported.
Tea plants (Camellia sinensis) face frequent attacks from pathogens such as Colletotrichum camelliae, which causes anthracnose and severely reduces leaf quality and yield. Plant hormones like ...
University of Warwick researchers discover rapid, jasmonate-driven, early immune response in plants using breakthrough live-imaging tool.
A new study reveals that plant immune defense involves a previously overlooked early signalling phase driven by jasmonates.
