Reactive oxygen species metabolism and phenylpropanoid pathway involved in disease resistance against <i>Penicillium expansum</i> in apple fruit induced by <i>ϵ</i>‐poly‐<scp>l</scp>‐lysine

Abstract

The disease resistance to P. expansum in apple fruits enhanced by PL treatment is related to activating ROS metabolism and the phenylpropanoid pathway and the accumulation of antifungal compounds. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.
