Participation of the phosphoinositide metabolism in the hypersensitive response of Citrus limon against Alternaria alternata

Lemon seedlings inoculated with Alternaria alternata develop a hypersensitive response (HR) that includes the induction of Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL, E. C. 4.3.1.5) and the synthesis of scoparone. The signal transduction pathway involved in the development of this response is unknown. We used...

Participation of the phosphoinositide metabolism in the hypersensitive response of Citrus limon against Alternaria alternata
description Lemon seedlings inoculated with Alternaria alternata develop a hypersensitive response (HR) that includes the induction of Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL, E.
