The potential of a plant to resist attack by a pathogen is enhanced after an initial inoculation with a necrotrophic pathogen. Not only the initially inoculated tissue, but also the remote organs such as leaves and roots, become resistant. Such immunization, named systemic acquired resistance (SAR), was first observed by Chester (4) with Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in tobacco and was further demonstrated by the pioneering work of Ross (50) and Kuc (28, 29). Efforts devoted to discovering the signal translocating during SAR revealed (26, 35, 40) the central role of salicylic acid (SA) in activating the defense mechanisms leading to SAR. Functional analogs of SA, such as 2, 6-dichloroisonicotinic acid (INA) or benzo [1, 2, 3] thiadiazole-7-carbothionic acid S-methyl ester (BTH or acibenzolar-S-methyl), were developed which activate the resistance mechanisms downstream of SA (16, 26, 35, 40, 57). Since the observations of Chester, little attention was given to the role of induced resistance in general, and of amino acids in particular, in plant defense (29). Kuc et al. were the first to notice in 1957 (31) and 1959 (30) that D-phenylalanine, D-alanine, and DL-tryptophan injected into apple leaves increased resistance against scab without affecting the causal pathogen in vitro. As early as 1958, Van Andel (60) examined 50 amino acids for inducing resistance against
