TL;DR: Results indicate that JA and not OPDA is the signaling molecule that induces and coordinates the elongation of the anther filament, the opening of the stomium at anthesis, and the production of viable pollen, and demonstrate that OPR3 is the only isoform of OPR capable of reducing the correct stereoisomer of OPDA to produce JA required for male gametophyte development.

TL;DR: Several members of the PR-5 group from tobacco and other plant species were shown to display significant in vitro activity of inhibiting hyphal growth or spore germination of various fungi probably by a membrane permeabilizing mechanism.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the jasmonate family cyclopentenone OPDA regulates gene expression in concert with JA to fine-tune the expression of defense genes.

TL;DR: The various tomato and tobacco PR-1 proteins were compared for their biological activity and found to display differential fungicidal activity against P. infestans in both the in vitro and in vivo assays, the most efficient being the newly characterized tomato P14c and tobaccoPR-1g.

TL;DR: Recent insights into the structure, function, and regulation of the enzymes involved in jasmonate biosynthesis help to explain how this variety of bioactive compounds is generated while specificity is maintained.
