Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Basal resistance mechanisms were cultivar dependent and inducible by hardening.
- Mechanism Hardening induced leaf roughness and superhydrophobicity restricting fungal adhesion and growth.
- Mechanism Lower permeability and altered wall composition protected against fungal tissue digestion.
- Observation In resistant hosts the fungus penetrated through stomata and formed haustoria-like structures.
- Observation Susceptible seedlings showed destructive necrotrophic infection despite hardening.
