Oxylipins:novel sources of soybean disease tolerance against Phytophthora sojae infection

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Disease tolerance is a defense strategy used by host plants to grow and produce equitable yield without displaying severe symptoms despite being infected by a pathogen. Oxylipins (oxygenated fatty acids) are among the first defense compounds produced (induced) in response to infection in a number of host pathogen relationships. There are over 200 oxylipins in existence that form part of the plant defense strategy, serving as signal molecules to induce defense responses, or function directly as antimicrobial compounds. These mode of actions indicate oxylipins could be potent biochemical sources of novel disease tolerance in specific host pathogen relationships such as the soybean
