The major plant sphingolipid long chain base phytosphingosine inhibits growth of bacterial and fungal plant pathogens

Abstract Sphingolipid long chain bases (LCBs) are building blocks of sphingolipids and can serve as signalling molecules, but also have antimicrobial activity and were effective in reducing growth of a range of human pathogens. In plants, LCBs are linked to cell death processes and the regulation of...
