Polyamines are involved not only in fundamental cellular processes such as growth, differentiation, and morphogenesis, but also in various environmental stresses. We demonstrated that spermidine, a polyamine, confers resistance to rice blast accompanied by the up-regulation of marker genes for the salicylic acid-mediated signaling pathway <i>PR1b</i> and <i>PBZ1</i> and of phytoalexin biosynthesis genes <i>CPS4</i> and <i>NOMT</i>. This is the first report about the involvement of spermidine in ...[more]
