Effect of exogenous salicylic acid on resistance of rice seedlings to blast

摘要

Salicylic acid(SA)is an endogenous regulatorymolecule for plant flowering and thermogene-sis,and has been reported as a signal moleculeof plant disease resistance in the plant-pathogen interaction.Exogenous SA is capableof inducing disease resistance in a wide range ofplants.This study was to evaluate the poten-tial for SA to induce resistance of rice
