The reduction of S02 atmospheric pollution in the early nineties caused sulfur-deficiency problems in the agriculture of northern Europe. Sulfur is essential for plant development and sulfur containing compounds such as sulfur rich antifungal proteins, phytoalexins and glucosinolates play an important role in plant defense against pathogens. Sulfur starved Brassica napus with no visible symptoms...

The reduction of atmospheric sulphur dioxide pollution is causing increasing problems of sulphur deficiency in sulphur-demanding crop plants in northern Europe. Elemental sulphur and many sulphur containing compounds such as cysteine-rich antifungal proteins, glucosinolates (GSL) and phytoalexins play important roles in plant disease resistance. The aim of this work was to analyse the effect of...

Plant secondary metabolism significantly contributes to defensive measures against adverse abiotic and biotic cues. To investigate stress-induced, transcriptional alterations of underlying effector gene families, which encode enzymes acting consecutively in secondary metabolism and defense reactions, a DNA array (MetArray) harboring gene-specific probes was established. It comprised complete sets...
