Although plants are exposed to a great number of pathogens, they usually defend themselves by triggering mechanisms able limit disease development. Alongside signalling events common most such incompatible interactions, modifications plasma membrane (PM) physical properties could be new players in the cell transduction cascade. Different pairs elicitors (cryptogein, oligogalacturonides, and flagellin) plant cells (tobacco Arabidopsis) were used address issue possible PM biophysical induced...
Abstract Although microalgae have only recently been recognized as part of the plant and soil microbiome, their application biofertilizers has a tradition in sustainable crop production. Under consideration ability to produce growth‐stimulating hormone cytokinin (CK), known also induce pathogen resistance, we assessed biocontrol CK‐producing microalgae. All pro‐ eukaryotic tested were able enhance tolerance tobacco against Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci ( PsT ) infection. Since...
Microalgae play an essential role in agriculture as bio-fertilizers and biostimulants, but some also produce various plant hormones, such cytokinins (CK). CK are a class of natural hormones there is evidence that exogenous or bacterial can modulate defense. However, lack knowledge about the effect specific microalgae microalgae-produced on this response. In our study, we have evaluated cytokinins-producing Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Cri) its ability to prime Nicotiana tabacum defenses...
