Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Treating tomato plants with MeJA significantly improved resistance to gray mold.
- Intervention effect The Ca2+ chelator EGTA and the plasmalemma Ca2+ channel blocker LaCl3 strongly restrained the MeJA-induced resistance of tomato to gray mold.
- Intervention effect Activities of PAL, PPO and POD rose in tomato plants after MeJA treatment.
- Intervention effect The MeJA-induced rise in PAL, PPO and POD activities was generally promoted by exterior Ca2+.
- Intervention effect The MeJA-induced rise in PAL, PPO and POD activities was suppressed by Ca2+ inhibitors such as EGTA and LaCl3.
- Intervention effect MeJA-induced activities of CAT and SOD were not regulated by Ca2+ or by Ca2+ inhibitors.
- Mechanism The authors suggest that calcium modulates MeJA-induced resistance to gray mold through activities of defensive enzymes such as PAL, PPO and POD in tomato leaves.
