Abstract

Xanthomonas euvesicatoria is one of the most destructive pathogens of pepper that results in serious yield loss worldwide. Previous studies confirmed that β-aminobutyric acid (BABA) induces resistance in plants against a variety of pathogens. A promoted resistance of pepper induced by BABA to X. euvesicatoria was demonstrated in this study. Additionally, induction of catalase and pathogenesis-related gene 1 during the BABA-induced resistance was confirmed. Our data provides useful information for the development of disease management programs.
