N-hydroxy-pipecolic acid is a mobile metabolite that induces systemic disease resistance in Arabidopsis [Plant Biology]

Systemic acquired resistance (SAR) is a global response in plants induced at the site of infection that leads to long-lasting and broad-spectrum disease resistance at distal, uninfected tissues. Despite the importance of this priming mechanism, the identity and complexity of defense signals that are required to initiate SAR signaling is...
