Infection of plants by necrotizing pathogens or colonization of plant roots with certain beneficial microbes causes the induction of a unique physiological state called “priming.” The primed state can also be induced by treatment of plants with various natural and synthetic compounds. Primed plants display either faster, stronger, or both activation of the various cellular defense responses...

Plants have developed numerous, complex defense mechanisms to escape infection by pathogens. In many cases, resistance is expressed locally and systemically in response to either necrotizing pathogens or root-colonizing soil bacteria. Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is characterized by a systemic accumulation of salicylic acid (SA) and the concomitant activation of pathogenesis-related (PR)...

Drought and salt stress tolerance of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants increased following treatment with the nonprotein amino acid β-aminobutyric acid (BABA), known as an inducer of resistance against infection of plants by numerous pathogens. BABA-pretreated plants showed earlier and higher expression of the salicylic acid-dependent PR-1 and PR-5 and the...
