Popis: Pectic oligosaccharides derived from plant cell walls have been shown to elicit defence responses in plants. They are released by hydrolytic enzymes secreted by pathogenic microorganisms, and act as endogenous elicitors. In this study, we investigated the effect of the pure endopolygalacturonase (endoPG ) prepared from the culture filtrate of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum race β on defence induction in Phaseolus vulgaris. The effects of race β endoPG treatment and of race β infection on the induction of β-1,3-glucanase were compared.
