COMPONENTS OF ARABIDOPSIS DEFENSE- AND ETHYLENE-SIGNALING PATHWAYS REGULATE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO CAULIFLOWER MOSAIC VIRUS BY RESTRICTING LONG-DISTANCE MOVEMENT

Components of Arabidopsis Defense- and Ethylene-Signaling Pathways Regulate Susceptibility to Cauliflower mosaic virus by Restricting Long-Distance Movement

We analyzed the susceptibility of Arabidopsis mutants with defects in salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA)/ethylene (ET) signaling to infection by Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV).Mutants cpr1-1 and cpr5-2, in which SA-dependent defense signaling is activated constitutively, were substantially more resistant than the wild type to systemic infe

Retention and concentration of Reticulitermes speratus feeding-deterrent from fungus-decayed Japanese red pine extract

Wood-feeding termites and wood-decaying Toy Furniture fungi share a niche and likely interact, impacting wood degradation processes.Prior research has primarily examined termite the preferences for decayed wood species, revealing instances of termite feeding deterrence in response to fungal decay products.The compound that caused the deterrence eff
