An untargeted global metabolomic analysis reveals the biochemical changes underlying basal resistance and priming in Solanum lycopersicum, and identi…

n this study, we have used untargeted global metabolomic analysis to determine and compare the chemi-cal nature of the metabolites altered during the infection of tomato plants (cv. Ailsa Craig) with Botry-tis cinerea (Bot)orPseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (Pst), pathogens that have different invasionmechanisms and lifestyles. We also obtained the metabolome of tomato plants primed using the naturalresistance inducer hexanoic acid and then infected with these pathogens. By contrasting the metabolomicprofiles of infected, primed, and primed + infected plants, we determined not only the processes or compo-nents related directly to plant defense responses, but also inferred the metabolic…
