Transcriptomic and proteomic analysis reveals (E)-2-hexenal modulates tomato resistance against Botrytis cinerea by regulating plant defense mechanism
In a previous study, we observed that (E)-2-hexenal stimulated systemic resistance against B. cinerea in tomato plants. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying (E)-2-hexenal-mediated regulation of systemic i...
