Significance of inducible defense-related proteins in infected plants

LC van Loon, M Rep, CMJ Pieterse - Annu. Rev. Phytopathol., 2006 - annualreviews.org
Inducible defense-related proteins have been described in many plant species upon
infection with oomycetes, fungi, bacteria, or viruses, or insect attack. Several types of
proteins are common and have been classified into 17 families of pathogenesis-related
proteins (PRs). Others have so far been found to occur more specifically in some plant
species. Most PRs and related proteins are induced through the action of the signaling
compounds salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, or ethylene, and possess antimicrobial activities in …
