[Objective] The aim of this study was to investigate whether communication signal C6-HSL among individual bacteria can influence plant growth and disease resistance ability. [Method] With potato virus-free plantlets as the test materials and C6-HSL as the inducer, the potato’s growth and the ability of resistance against Erwinia carotovora subp carotovora were tested after being treated by C6-HSL with different concentrations. The effects of C6-HSL on plant landmark defense enzyme activities and H2O2 content in potato leaves were measured especially. [Result] C6-HSL with different concentrations could obviously inhibit the growth rate of root and the number of roots, but had no effect on plant height, number of nodes and leaf size. POD or SOD activity and H2O2 content in plant landmark defense enzymes significantly increased after induction of C6-HSL，but PAL and PPO activity had no obvious change. In the resistant test，potato plants induced by C6-HSL could inhibit the infection of Erwinia carotovora subp carotovora effectively，and its incidence was significantly lower than the control group. [Conclusion] Bacteria AHL can be possibly used as a new kind of plant disease-resistant activator.
