Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation IAA accumulates in cereal plants during early Fusarium graminearum infection.
- Mechanism IAA has been suggested as a virulence factor that alters host nutrition and immunity.
- Mechanism F. graminearum infection may preferentially trigger conversion of L-TRP to serotonin and phytomelatonin in wheat heads.
- Association Low concentrations of these metabolites have been reported to stimulate IAA accumulation.
- Recommendation The authors recommend identifying fungal effectors involved in cereal IAA accumulation.
