Sucrose and invertases, a part of the plant defense response to the biotic stresses
Sucrose is the main form of assimilated carbon which is produced during photosynthesis and then transported from source to sink tissues via the phloem. This disaccharide is known to have important roles as signaling molecule and it is involved in many metabolic processes in plants. Essential for plant growth and development, sucrose is engaged in plant defense by activating plant immune respons...
متن کاملFunction of ABA in Stomatal Defense against Biotic and Drought Stresses
The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates many key processes involved in plant development and adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses. Under stress conditions, plants synthesize ABA in various organs and initiate defense mechanisms, such as the regulation of stomatal aperture and expression of defense-related genes conferring resistance to environmental stresses. The regulation of stom...
متن کاملPlant Defense against Insect Herbivores
Plants have been interacting with insects for several hundred million years, leading to complex defense approaches against various insect feeding strategies. Some defenses are constitutive while others are induced, although the insecticidal defense compound or protein classes are often similar. Insect herbivory induce several internal signals from the wounded tissues, including calcium ion flux...
متن کاملGermplasm – Unlocking Maize Diversity for Improving Host Plant Resistance against West Corn Rootworm and Other Biotic Stresses
The Western corn rootworm (WCR) is a serious pest of maize in the U.S. and of growing importance in Europe. Soil insecticides, the use of transgenic maize hybrids producing a Bt toxin, and the rotation of maize with other crops are successfully used to manage WCR populations. However, the occurrence of WCR populations resistant to insecticides and adapted to cultural practices raises the questi...
متن کاملPlant defense genes are regulated by ethylene.
One of the earliest detectable events during plant-pathogen interaction is a rapid increase in ethylene biosynthesis. This gaseous plant stress hormone may be a signal for plants to activate defense mechanisms against invading pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The effect of ethylene on four plant genes involved in three separate plant defense response pathways was examined; these ...
