Molecular Basis of Ergosterol-Induced Protection of Grape Against Botrytis cinerea: Induction of Type I LTP Promoter Activity, WRKY, and Stilbene Synthase Gene Expression

Type I lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) are basic, 9-kDa cystein-rich proteins believed to be involved in plant defense mechanisms. A 2,100-bp fragment containing the coding region of Vitis vinifera lipid transfer protein 1 (VvLTP1) and 1,420-bp of its promoter region was isolated by screening a grape...
