The development of an effective hypersensitive response (HR) in any plant system relies, not only in their gene composition and expression, but also on an effective and rapid signal transduction system. Lemon seedlings induce the phenylpropanoid pathway, which results in the de novo biosynthesis of the phytoalexin scoparone, as part of the hypersensitive response against Alternaria alternata. In order to elucidate some of the signaling elements that participate in the development of HR in lemon seedlings, we used several compounds that are known as activators or inhibitors of signal transduction elements in plants or in animal cells. Lemon seedlings treated either with cholera toxin or with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), in the absence of A.... |
