Systemic resistance was induced to Pyricularia oryzae in rice by inoculation of the first leaf with the hypersensitive response causing bacterium, Pseudomonas syringae pv. Lesions caused by Pyricularia oryzae were decreased in number and size by 85%, and 50%, respectively, in systemically protected leaves. Increased resistance was associated with the deposition of a dark brown material around sites of Pyricularia oryzae infection. The systemically acquired resistance was not associated with an increase in the activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase, coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase, peroxidase, beta-1,3-glucanase or chitinase after the challenge inoculation with Pyricularia oryzae. The levels of these enzymes were elevated by local exposure to Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae or Pyricularia oryzae, but were not systemically induced. These data suggest that the physiological changes which occur during induced resistance in rice are different from those correlated with induced resistance in tobacco or cucumber.
