P HYTOALEXINS: What Have We Learned After 60 Years?

Hammerschmidt, Ray·1999·Annual Review of Phytopathology

Abstract

▪ Abstract One of the best and longest-studied defense response of plants to infection is the induced accumulation of antimicrobial, low-molecular-weight secondary metabolites known as phytoalexins. Since the phytoalexin hypothesis was first proposed in 1940, a role for these compounds in defense has been revealed through several experimental approaches. Support has come, for example, through studies on the rate of phytoalexins in relation to cessation of pathogen development, quantification of phytoalexins at the infection site, and relationship of pathogen virulence to the phytoalexin tolerance. Evidence in support of phytoalexins in resistance as well some recent advances in phytoalexin biosynthesis are reviewed. Criteria for evaluating a role for phytoalexins in disease resistance are also discussed.

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.
