Biogenic elicitors (chitosan and its complex with salicylic acid) and an immunosuppressor (laminarin) were shown to increase the activity of L -phenylalanine ammonia lyase (EC 4.3.1.5) and protein synthesis in potato tubers. Laminarin did not decrease L -phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity. It is unlikely that the activity of this enzyme serves as a criterion for the induced resistance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
