Abstract
The enhanced expression of PLD genes and the quantitative increase in the level of phosphatidic acid (PA) in resistant Sinapis alba compared to the downregulated or unchanged expression of the PLD genes and decreased PA level in susceptible Brassica juncea when challenged with Alternaria brassicicola, indicated a positive relationship between PA-mediated signalling and resistance against this necrotrophic pathogen. Furthermore, spraying PA onto the susceptible species B. juncea increased resistance and enhanced expression of ABA-responsive genes, which was comparable to the expression of these genes in S. alba when challenged with A. brassicicola.
