A natriuretic peptide molecule from Vigna angularis, VaEG45, confers rust resistance by inhibiting fungal development

Ultralong‐lasting plasma‐activated water inhibits pathogens and improves plant disease resistance in soft rot‐infected hydroponic lettuce

“…[45] For example, the β-1,3-glucanase could destroy the biomolecules of the cell wall thereby suppressing the survival of pathogens. [46][47][48][49] In this study, though the invasion of pathogens has enhanced the β-1,3-glucanase activity, its activity in the ULPAW-treated inoculated lettuce roots was higher compared with non-ULPAW treated inoculated plants (Figure 7a). These results indicate that ULPAW treatment was more effective for enhancing disease resistance-related enzyme activity to tackle pathogen invasion.…”
