In contrast, Solanum torvum, also known as wild eggplant, does not wilt when infested with R. solanacearum. In order to describe the mechanism underlying the response of S. torvum, it was compared with the cultivated eggplant, S. melongena, when both were infected with the same R. solanacearum strain. No wilting occurred in S. torvum, although the bacteria colonised roots and stems in both species within the first 24 h. There were marked differences beyond 24 h, consisting of high bacterial mortality in S. torvum. Using the calli model, our investigations revealed an increase in cell wall monoamine oxidase activity in S. torvum after R. solanacearum inoculation, which did not occur in S. melongena. specialized Bacteria density bacterial wilt eggplant monoamine oxidase Solanaceae 076 16 5 1025-1028 2014 1435-8603 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010062496 10.1111/plb.12185 1435-8603 [F B010062496] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010062496 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2014/09/010062496.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2014-10-02 2017-08-23 fdi:010062496 fre
