“…It is expected that several signaling peptides are involved in combating herbivore and pathogen attack (Cheong et al, 2002;Francia et al, 2007;Chassot et al, 2008), but the details of the regulation of antiherbivore and antipathogen responses by peptides during wounding stress still await elucidation. Several DAMP peptides have been discovered in other plant species and suggested to be bioactive in tomato (Boller and Felix, 2009b;Campos et al, 2014); these include HypSys (Pearce et al, 2001a;Narvaez-Vasquez et al, 2007), RALF (Pearce et al, 2001b), and Pep1 (Huffaker et al, 2006;Trivilin et al, 2014). Pep1 was clearly identified to be pathogen related in Arabidopsis, and its putative precursor in tomato was recently found to involve in the antipathogen response (Trivilin et al, 2014).…”
