Resumen:
Background: Culture filtrates from Acremonium spp. induce resistance against pathogens in strawberry.Results: A 34-kDa extracellular protein from Acremonium strictum exhibiting strawberry defense inducing and in vitro subtilisin-likeproteolytic activities was characterized, and its encoding cDNA was cloned.Conclusion: Fungal subtilisin AsES is a novel defense elicitor.Significance: Characterization of elicitor molecules is crucial for understanding the plant-pathogen interaction and improvingthe plant defense response.
