This study investigates the levels of jasmonic acid (JA) in pepper and Arabidopsis plants infected with Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato. JA concentrations were measured in leaves of CaLOX1-silenced pepper plants and CaLOX1-OX Arabidopsis transgenic plants during infection by different strains of the pathogens. The results provide insights into the role of JA in plant defense mechanisms against virulent and avirulent strains of these pathogens.
