Abstract
Hypericum perforatum (HP) cultures were used to study the plant defence against the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (CG). A significant increase in xanthone accumulation was observed in HP cells elicited with CG. Priming of HP cells with methyl-jasmonate or salicylic acid prior to CG elicitation led to a xanthone burst.
