Prevention of bacterially induced hypersensitive reaction by living bacteria
Infiltration of tobacco leaf with the low concentration (5 × 10 5 cells/ml) resulted in decreased capacity of the tissue to develop hypersensitive reaction (HR) against higher concentration of the same bacterium. Development of HR against 5 × 10 6 cells/ml (the lowest HR-inducing concentration) was...

Summary: | Infiltration of tobacco leaf with the low concentration (5 × 10
5 cells/ml) resulted in decreased capacity of the tissue to develop hypersensitive reaction (HR) against higher concentration of the same bacterium. Development of HR against 5 × 10
6 cells/ml (the lowest HR-inducing concentration) was prevented as early as 3 h after inoculation with 5 × 10
5 cells/ml. HR induction with bacterial concentration up to 10
8 cells/ml could be prevented by preinoculation of the tissue with 5 × 10
5 cells/ml twice at 24-h intervals. Preventive effect was light dependent and is translocatable to the untreated surrounding tissue. |
