Relationships Among Endo-Polygalacturonase, Oxalate, pH, and Plant Polygalacturonase-Inhibiting Protein (PGIP) in the Interaction Between Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Soybean
The necrotrophic fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum secretes oxalic acid and endo-polygalacturonase (endo-PG) in host plants. Oxalic acid acidifies the plant tissue to values more suitable to endo-PG activity. However, we observed that the infected soybean seedlings possessed a pH of 3.8, whic...
