MeJA-Induced Plant Disease Resistance: A Review

This review offers a comprehensive analysis of the extensive research on methyl jasmonate (MeJA)-induced plant disease resistance. It aims to elucidate the signal transduction pathways, interactions with other phytohormones, regulation of related gene expression, and the fundamental mechanisms contributing to plant disease resistance. The review provides a detailed examination of MeJA-induced defense responses and the sustainability of the induced resistance. Furthermore, it assesses the practical applications and current status of MeJA across various plant species and explores potential research directions in disease management. It serves as a systematic reference for a deeper understanding of MeJA-induced plant disease resistance and holds significant importance for advancing further developments in the field.
