Journal ArticleDOI
Polygalacturonase‐inhibiting protein accumulates in Phaseolus vulgaris L. in response to wounding, elicitors and fungal infection
Carl Bergmann,Y. Ito,D Singer,Peter Albersheim,Alan G. Darvill,Nicole Benhamou,L. Nuss,G. Salvi,Felice Cervone,G. De Lorenzo +9 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that synthesis of PGIP constitutes an active defense mechanism of plants that is elicited by signal molecules known to induce plant defense genes is supported.
Book ChapterDOI
Phytotoxic Effects and Phytoalexin-Elicitor Activity of Microbial Pectic Enzymes
Felice Cervone,Felice Cervone,G. De Lorenzo,G. De Lorenzo,Renato D'Ovidio,Renato D'Ovidio,Michael G. Hahn,Y. Ito,Alan G. Darvill,Peter Albersheim +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence suggesting that these three physiological activities of pectic enzymes may be regulated by factors such as endo-polygalacturonase inhibiting proteins (PGIP) and pH is presented.
Book ChapterDOI
Release of Phytoalexin Elicitor-Active Oligogalacturonides by Microbial Pectic Enzymes
Felice Cervone,G. De Lorenzo,Giovanni Salvi,Carl Bergmann,Michael G. Hahn,Y. Ito,Alan G. Darvill,Peter Albersheim +7 more
TL;DR: Two mechanisms by which the action of fungal endopolygalacturonases and bacterial endopectate lyases may be regulated such that the formation of elicitor-active oligogalacturonides is favored are discussed.
