Novel Insight into the Prevention and Therapeutic Treatment of <i>Paulownia</i> Witches' Broom: A Study on the Effect of Salicylic Acid on Disease Control and the Changes in the <i>Paulownia</i> Transcriptome and Proteome.

ABSTRACT: Paulownia species not only have significant economic benefits but also show great potential in ecological conservation. However, they are highly susceptible to phytoplasma infections, causing Paulownia witches' broom (PaWB), which severely restricts the development of the Paulownia industry. Salicylic acid (SA) plays a crucial role in plant disease resistance. However, there have been no reports on the effect of SA on PaWB. Due to the properties of SA, it may have potential in controlling PaWB. Based on the above speculation, the prevention and therapeutic effect of SA on PaWB and its effect on the PaWB-infected Paulownia transcriptome and proteome were studied in this work. The results indicated that 0.1 mmol/L was the optimal SA concentration for inhibiting th
