Abstract:
Prohexadione-Ca is a structural mimic of 2-oxoglutarate, and according to this property, it is able to inhibit dioxygenase enzymes, which require 2-oxoglutarate as a cosubstrate. Such enzymes are involved in flavonoid biosynthesis; therefore, prohexadione-Ca treatment leads to alterations in the flavonoid metabolism in grapevine tissues. Because of the fact that phenolic compounds often are responsible for enhanced plant resistance, modification of phenylpropanoid metabolism using elicitation c...     »
