The capacity of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings to develop resistance against alamethicin
Abstract Previous research on tobacco and Arabidopsis cell suspensions have shown that plants can be permeabilized by the membrane-active peptide, alamethicin. However, pretreatment of cells with cellulase produced by the fungus Trichoderma viride induced resistance to alamethicin. In this project, I investigated the effect of alamethicin treatment on Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings and whether a
