Physiological and Structural Changes in Tobacco Leaves Treated with Cryptogein, a Proteinaceous Elicitor fromPhytophthora cryptogea
1991
Cryptogein was applied on the petiole section of excised tobacco leaves. It elicited necroses that can be correlated with histological alterations, such as rapid chloroplast breakdown and a collapse of cells leading to disorganization of the parenchyma tissue. In addition, it induced ethylene production and accumulation of capsidiol. In order to detect an early response, we analyzed the kinetics of chlorophyll fluorescence induction (...)
Early signaling network in tobacco cells elicited with methyl jasmonate and cyclodextrins.
2012
We analyze, for the first time, the early signal transduction pathways triggered by methyl jasmonate (MJ) and cyclodextrins (CDs) in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cell cultures, paying particular attention to changes in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)), the production of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) and nitric oxide (NO), and late events like the induction of capsidiol. Our data indicate that MJ and CDs trigger a [Ca(2+)](cyt) rise promoted by Ca(2+) influx through Ca(2+)-permeable channels. The joint presence of MJ and CDs provokes a first increase in [Ca(2+)](cyt) similar to that observed in MJ-treated cells, followed by a second peak similar to that found in the presence…
