Biochemical aspects of stress physiology of plants and some considerations of defense mechanisms in conifers

Hoque, E.

A review is given on biochemical aspects of stress physiology and defense mechanisms of plants with special reference to coniferous trees. To date, investigations on these topics have proceeded on a wide front. These include biotic (fungi, bacteria, parasitic higher plants, nematodes) and abiotic (temperature, moisture, light, pH, host‐plant nutrition) stress phenomena as well as their causal relationships to biochemical and histological defense mechanisms. Research dealing with hormonal control of defense mechanisms is emphasized in this review.
