Regulation of ethylene biosynthesis by mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades in Arabidopsis
… a simple gaseous hydrocarbon, is an important plant hormone that has profound effects on plant growth, development, and response to environmental stimuli. Ethylene induces the ripening of climacteric fruits, which is characterized by a steep increase in ethylene synthesis at the mature stage. …

Modeling the dynamics of the plant immune response
… profiled as dynamic snapshots of biological responses. My PhD study focuses on dynamic modeling of plant immunity, a plant defense response induced by pathogens. There are two well-defined modes of inducible immunity of plant to overcome pathogen attack, namely pattern triggered immunity …

Small non-coding RNA-mediated epigenetic regulation of gene expression and its implications for wheat adaptation to continuous cultivation
… and biotic soil stress factors as well as plant adaptation to long-term monoculture systems. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet been adequately explained. Against this background, this dissertation presents, in addition to a general introduction (Chapter I) and …

Study and Manipulation of the Salicylic Acid-Dependent Defense Pathway in Plants Parasitized by Orobanche aegyptiaca Pers.
… this goal, but require an understanding of host defense responses to parasitism. Previous studies with tobacco indicated that broomrape parasitism induces host genes associated with jasmonic acid (JA)-mediated defenses such as wound responses and localized production of phenylpropanoid and …

Stress Physiology of Phytophthora-canker Pathogens in Landscape Trees: impacts, mechanisms, and mitigation through biochar amendment
… is thought to confer multiple benefits to plants including induction of systemic resistance to plant pathogens. Pathogens in the genus Phytophthora cause damaging diseases of woody species throughout the world. The objectives of the experiments described in the following chapters were to …

MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN HELIANTHUS ANNUUS AND VERTICILLIUM DAHLIAE
… dahliae, was also used to infiltrate sunflower plants. Our results indicate that VdNEP has a dual role in the interaction between sunflower and V. dahliae. VdNEP acted not only as a pathogenicity factor on sunflower by inducing wilting symptoms such as chlorosis, necrosis and vascular …

PHYTOPLASMAS-ENDOPHYTES INTERACTIONS: THE CASE STUDY OF GRAPEVINE YELLOWS RECOVERY
… phytoplasma-diseased and recovered grapevine plants. LH-PCR of total DNA from grapevine leaves was used to generate amplicon profiles that were analyzed with univariate and multivariate statistical methods. Jaccard analyses highlighted that microbial diversity and structure is different in …
