Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0063347A1] The present invention provides methods of augmenting plant defenses, in particular the generation of active oxygen species (AOS), against predator attack that include the steps of (a) introducing a nucleic acid molecule that encodes a protein selected from the group consisting of systemin, prosystemin and polygalacturonase into plant cells; (b) regenerating plants from the plant cells treated in accordance with step (a); and (c) screening the regenerated plants to identify regenerated plants having an augmented active oxygen species response.
