In vitro study | The mode of action of N-Hydroxypipecolic acid (NHP) in SAR involves direct induction of SAR gene expression, signal amplification, priming for enhanced defense activation and positive interplay with salicylic acid signaling to ensure elevated plant immunity. Flavin-dependent-monooxygenase1 (FMO1) functions downstream of Pip by hydroxylating Pip to generate NHP. |
biological activity | N-Hydroxypipecolic acid is a plant metabolite and systemic acquired resistance (SAR) regulator, systemic acquired resistance can be established in coordination with the immune signal salicylic acid. N-Hydroxypipecolic acid accumulates systematically in plant leaves to cope with the invasion of pathogenic bacteria. N-Hydroxypipecolic acid induced systemic acquired resistance to bacterial and oomycete infections. |
