Abstract

The demand for more food production and the pollution of ecosystems by pesticides is calling for sustainable methods to improve crop yields, such as the management of rhizobacteria that grow in the root zone. For instance, rhizobacteria induce systemic resistance against a large number of pathogens in plants. Here we review induced systemic resistance in plants with focus on plant immunity, systemic versus local resistance, molecular mechanisms, signaling, the role of salicylic acid, hormones and genes, and the control of crop diseases.
