The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Chitosan for Improving Orchid Production and Quality (2007, background): “Oxidation of phenolic compounds associated with enhanced resistance to pathogens may involve PPO, which could generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) (Mayer 2006).”
Seaweed extract: biostimulator of plant defense and plant productivity (2019, background): “Mayer (2006) reported that seaweed extract activated the POX, PPO that catalyzed the synthesis of lignin and phenolics against pathogen attack.”
Phenoloxidase: a key component of the insect immune system (2012, background): “It has even been suggested that there is no one common tyrosinase protein structure (Mayer, 2006).”
Defensive Roles of Polyphenol Oxidase in Plants (2008, background): “Based on its association with browning reactions in crop plants, PPO has been characterized in a wide variety of food plants including banana, wheat, quince, and avocado, and a number of chemical inhibitors have been identified (reviewed in Mayer 2006; Yoruk and Marshall 2003).”
