Closing another gap in the plant SAR puzzle
Article Abstract:
The author discusses the study on NPR1, a regulator of the salicylic acid dependent pathogen resistance pathway in plants. The topics of interest include the activation of Arabidopsis NPR1 by cellular redox changes induced by salicylic acid during systemic acquired resistance.
