PLANT DISEASE RESISTANCE INDUCER

摘要

The object aims to establish a comprehensive and efficient screening method for a plant disease resistance inducer, and provide a novel plant disease resistance inducer by employging the screening method. Specifically disclosed is a plant disease resistance inducer comprising a compound capable of inhibiting the salicylic acid glucosyltransferase activity of a protein selected from the following proteins (a) and (b): (a) a protein comprising the amino acid sequence depicted in SEQ ID NO:2; and (b) a protein which comprises an amino acid sequence having the deletion, substitution or addition of one or several amino acid residues in the amino acid sequence depicted in SEQ ID NO:2 and has a salicylic acid glucosyltransferase activity.
