Salicylic (SA) and jasmonic (JA) acids are the best known mediators of signal systems in plants. In this investigation the participation and character of interactions between SA- and JA-signals under the induced and genetic resistance of plants to nematodes was investigated on the model system tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) and the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. This study demonstrates that application of JA and SA to tomato foliage induces systemic effects that suppress root-knot nematode infestation, inhibition of nematode reproduction, and also increased activity of LOX and PAL, the enzymes of biosynthesis of JA and SA. JA treatment did not inhibit Mz-mediated resistance, which suggests a lack of signaling conflicts between these two forms of defense.

Background: The cotton-melon aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover, is a polyphagous pest damaging plants across over 100 families. It has multiple host-specialized lineages, including one colonizing Malvaceae (MA) and one colonizing Cucurbitaceae (CU). The mechanisms underlying these host relationships remain unknown.

Jasmonic acid (JA), ethylene (ET) and salicylic acid (SA) are the three major phytohormones coordinating plant defense responses, and all three are implicated in the defense against the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. However, their distinct modes of action and possible interactions remain unknown, in part because all spatial information on their activity is lacking. Here, we set out to probe this spatial aspect of plant immunity by using live-microscopy with newly developed fluorescence-based transcriptional reporter lines.

Plant sphingolipids are lipophilic membrane components essential for different cellular functions but they also act as signaling molecules in various aspects of plant development. However, the interaction between plant sphingolipids and abscission remains largely uncharacterized. Here, the possible role of sphingolipids in regulating fruit abscission was examined in the abscission zone (AZ) of olive fruit.

Background: The jasmonic acid (JA) and salicylic acid (SA) pathways are often thought to interact antagonistically in plants when mediating anti-herbivore resistance. However, we previously found that the two pathways in tea plant interact synergistically when treated with 1.5 mmol/L methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and 20 mmol/L SA at 12 h intervals (MeJA+SA treatment).
