Abstract:
The metabolism of secondary compounds in plants is strongly involved in the interaction between the host and the parasite. The resistance of apple against Venturia inaequalis is based on a rapid and localised accumulation of phenylpropanoids which is induced by the infection. However, the biosynthesis and accumulation of secondary compounds is dependent on environmental and growth conditions. A prerequisite for the formation of phenolic compounds is the availability of C-skeletons. High nitrogen...     »
