Biochemical Changes in β-Cryptogein-Elicited Tobacco: A possible Basis of Acquired Resistance

β-Cryptogein, a proteinaceous elicitor from the phytopathogenic fungus Phytophthoracryptogea, is known to induce leaf necrosis in tobacco and non-specific resistance (expressed in the perinecrotic leaf area) against a wide range of tobacco pathogens. To reveal mechanisms underlying the acquired resi...
