General description

Salicylic acid (SA) is a phenolic compound produced in plants.

Application

Salicylic acid has been used:
  • to study its effects on glandular trichomes in Artemisia annua
  • to study its effects on DNA methylation in Taraxacum alatum andTaraxacum hemicyclum
  • to study its effects on parasite epidemics in Lolium arundinaceum

Biochem/physiol Actions

Salicylic acid (SA) plays a role in endogenous signaling for plant disease resistance. SA is also involved in mediating thermogenesis and symptom development.

Glandular trichomes (GT) of Artemisia annua produce valuable compounds for pharmaceutical and industrial uses, most notably the anti-malarial artemisinin. Our aim was to find out whether the density, number and size of GT can be manipulated to advantage by environmental

DNA methylation is one of the mechanisms underlying epigenetic modifications. DNA methylations can be environmentally induced and such induced modifications can at times be transmitted to successive generations. However, it remains speculative how common such environmentally induced transgenerational DNA methylation

How plants coordinate developmental processes and environmental stress responses is a pressing question. Here, we show that Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) Rho of Plants6 (AtROP6) integrates developmental and pathogen response signaling. AtROP6 expression is induced by auxin and detected in the
