Current Approaches for Enhanced Expression of Secondary Metabolites as Bioactive Compounds in Plants for Agronomic and Human Health Purposes – a Review (2013, background): “When applied, they cause no symptoms of demand and stress accumulation of toxic compounds that sensitize the plant tissue and improve their resistance to subsequent infections [Boller & Felix, 2009; Mejía-Teniente et al., 2010; Spoel & Dong, 2012].”
Antifungal activity of silver nanoparticles synthesized using turnip leaf extract (Brassica rapa L.) against wood rotting pathogens (2014, background): “Unlike mammals, the plant immune system seems far less complex; it lacks specialized mobile defender cells and a somatic adaptive immune system (Spoel and Dong 2012).”
The FLS2-associated kinase BIK1 directly phosphorylates the NADPH oxidase RbohD to control plant immunity. (2014, background): “Plants are equipped with a variety of immune receptors that sense the invasion of numerous pathogenic microbes (Boller and Felix, 2009; Dodds and Rathjen, 2010; Spoel and Dong, 2012; Monaghan and Zipfel, 2012).”
Insect immune priming: ecology and experimental evidences (2016, background): “Immune priming has now been studied in vertebrates (Sun et al., 2009; Paust & von Andrian, 2011), invertebrates (Kurtz, 2005; Schmid-Hempel, 2011; Masri & Cremer, 2014), and plants (Spoel & Dong, 2012).”
Worldwide Research on Plant Defense against Biotic Stresses as Improvement for Sustainable Agriculture (2018, background): “The second level of plant immune system is carried out by plant resistance (R) proteins that recognize specific effectors from pathogens or pests (Avr proteins) and activate plant defense mechanisms in a much more effective way [16,17].”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, neutral): “In such cases where attackers are able to overcome the constitutive defence layers, they face an arsenal of inducible defences (Fig. 1; Pieterse et al., 2009; Spoel and Dong, 2012).”
Controlling crop diseases using induced resistance: challenges for the future. (2013, background): “ISR develops as a result of colonization of plant roots by certain strains of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and is mediated by a jasmonate (JA)and ethylene (ET)-sensitive pathway (Spoel and Dong, 2012).”
Salicylic acid to decrease plant stress (2016, background): “Noteworthy is that any NPR1 monomer entering the nucleus is ultimately degraded, but only the degradation of phosphorylated NPR1 results in the activation of SAR, while degradation of un-phosphorylated NPR1 (in resting cells) does not result in induction of defense genes and SAR (Fu et al. 2012).”
