Abstract

An elicitor of phytoalexin production in soybean (Glycine max L.) tissues was isolated from purified Phytophthora megasperma var. sojae mycelial walls by a heat treatment similar to that used to solubilize the surface antigens from the cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The wall-released elicitor is a discrete, minor portion of the P. megasperma var. sojae mycelial walls. The elicitor released from the mycelial walls was divided by diethylaminoethylcellulose and concanavalin A-Sepharose chromatography into four fractions, each having different chemical characteristics. The four fractions were obtained from each of the three races of P. megasperma var. sojae. The corresponding fractions from each of the three races are very similar in composition and elicitor activity. The results suggest that the elicitor activity of each fraction resides in the glucan component of the fraction. Evidence is presented to demonstrate that the elicitors are not race-specific and that the accumulation of glyceollin is not sufficient to account for race-specific resistance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
