Example sentences for: elicitors

How can you use “elicitors” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

The bZIP transcription factors are important in the regulation of genes activated by light, UV radiation, pathogen attacks, elicitors, wounding, abscisic acid (ABA) treatment, and SA treatment [ 47 71 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 ] . We identified two basic zipper (bZIP) transcription factors and basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors in the stress cDNA collection.
Certain RING finger proteins are rapidly induced by elicitors in Arabidopsis and may be involved in the rapid degradation of regulatory proteins during early stages of pathogen attack [ 69 ] . Four genes encoding proteins with an F-box domain and seven different genes encoding RING/RING-H2-finger proteins, including the elicitor-induced ATL6 -like gene [ 69 ] , were identified in the stress cDNA collection.
This includes genes encoding proteins of the antioxidant response (GSTs, peroxidases), the SAR response (pathogenesis-related genes) and cell rescue [ 50 ] . Genes induced in response to other stresses, such as drought [ 51 ] , heat shock [ 52 ] , dehydration [ 53 54 55 ] , and elicitors such as Avr9 [ 56 ] , avrRpt2 [ 57 ] and harpins [ 58 59 ] , were also identified in the stress cDNA collection, underscoring the overlap between the different stress responses
Indeed, conserved features of bacteria can act as elicitors of gene expression through pathways distinct from those associated with gene-for-gene disease resistance [ 22 ] .
