Light suppresses bacterial population through the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in tobacco leaves infected with Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci
Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci (Pst) is a hemibiotrophic bacterial pathogen responsible for tobacco wildfire disease. Although considerable research has been conducted on the tobacco plant’s tolerance to Pst, the role of light in the responses of the photosystems to Pst infection is poorly understo...
