Jasmonic acid (JA) is a well-known lipid-derived signaling molecule that is produced by certain bacteria, fungi, and plants. It plays an important role in the induction of Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR) in plants. The biosynthesis and function of JA from plants has been well documented, but the information on this molecule is still scarce for microorganisms. This chapter summarizes the knowledge on the occurrence of jasmonates from plants as well as microbial culture media and the culture conditions for optimal JA production as an alternative source for the production of these valuable metabolites.
