Saponins versus plant fungal pathogens
The production of low-molecular-weight antimicrobial molecules within plants is one component of defense against pathogens. Among them, preformed antimicrobial compounds (phytoanticipins) are the first biochemical barriers against pathogens. Saponins (a group of phytoanticipins) are present constitutively in plants and play important roles in plant defense. A variety of biological roles have be...
متن کاملFungal plant pathogens in Portugal: Alternaria dauci.
A leaf blight of carrot (Daucus carota) caused by Alternaria dauci was found in Alentejo (Ourique, Portugal). Morphological characteristics of the fungus are described.
متن کاملHuman and Plant Fungal Pathogens: The Role of Secondary Metabolites
Secondary metabolites (SM) are small organic molecules produced by various microorganisms (mainly fungi and actinobacteria, among others) through the action of large enzymes like nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) and polyketide synthases (PKS) or by enzymes like dimethylallyl transferases and prenyltransferases. These special metabolites are in general not essential for growth but are bel...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species and plant resistance to fungal pathogens.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been studied for their role in plant development as well as in plant immunity. ROS were consistently observed to accumulate in the plant after the perception of pathogens and microbes and over the years, ROS were postulated to be an integral part of the defence response of the plant. In this article we will focus on recent findings about ROS involved in the in...
متن کاملCryptic fungal infections: the hidden agenda of plant pathogens
INTRODUCTION Host-microbe interactions have traditionally been viewed primarily from the perspective of pathogenesis and disease. The principal assumption is that a susceptible host will support microbial growth inside host tissues, leading eventually to the development of symptoms and disease. Inversely, non-susceptible (resistant) hosts will block pathogen infection and the expression of dise...
