The development of Alternaria alternata is prevented by chitinases and ß-1,3- glucanases from Citrus limon seedlings
In addition to phytoalexin synthesis, the defense response of intact Citrus limon seedlings against Alternaria alternata involves both constitutive and induced enzyme activities such as chitinases (Ch) and ß-1,3-glucanases (Glu). A. alternata conidial germination was prevented by protein extracts fr...
