Elicitor description |
---|
Elicitors in plant biology are extrinsic or foreign molecules often associated with plant pests, diseases or synergistic organisms. Elicitor molecules can attach to special receptor proteins located on plant cell membranes. These receptors are able to recognize the molecular pattern of elicitors and trigger intracellular defence signalling via the Octadecanoid pathway. This response results in the enhanced synthesis of metabolites which reduce damage and increase resistance to pest, disease or environmental stress. This is an immune response known as pattern triggered immunity or PTI. PTI is effective against necrotropic microorganisms. * An example is chitosan which is found in the shells of crustaceans, insects and in fungi. Chitosan is used in agriculture as a natural biocontrol agent, to improve plant health and increase crop yields. |
