PATHOGENESIS-RELATED PROTEINS: RESEARCH PROGRESS IN THE LAST 15 YEARS (2005, background): “…such as apple – Venturia inaequalis (Gau et al., 2004), tomato – Alternaria solani (Lawrence et al., 2000), and potato – Phytophthora infestans (Vleeshouwers et al., 2000), the last authors proposing PR mRNAs as molecular marker in potato breeding programs. c) Significant constitutive…”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “Many PR proteins possess antimicrobial activity that leads to an enhanced resistance that spreads to distal organs (Vleeshouwers et al., 2000; van Loon et al., 2006).”
Significance of inducible defense-related proteins in infected plants. (2006, background): “In several instances, quantitative resistance against pathogens has been shown to be associated with constitutively expressed PRs (84, 107, 165).”
