Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and Erwinia-Derived Elicitors HrpN and PehA Trigger Distinct but Interacting Defense Responses and Cell Death in Arabidopsis

We have used an hrp-positive strain of the soft rot pathogen Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora to elucidate plant responses to this bacterial necrotroph. Purified virulence determinants, harpin (HrpN) and polygalacturonase (PehA), were used as tools to facilitate this analysis. We show that HrpN...
