“…It has been known for quite a while that NADP-ME is induced in various abiotic stress conditions (Maurino et al, 2001;Liu et al, 2007) and during elicitor treatment and plant-pathogen interactions (Walter et al, 1988;Schaaf et al, 1995;Casati et al, 1997Casati et al, , 1999Maurino et al, 2001;Parker et al, 2009) and recently it was shown that NADP-ME induction proceeds more rapidly in incompatible compared with compatible interactions with B. distachyon (Parker et al, 2009). Consequently, the sites of NADP-ME induction and ROS production coincided during early infection with this hemibiotrophic fungus (Parker et al, 2009).…”
