Described are 6-substituted indanoyl amino acid conjugates as defined in claim 1 of the present invention as potent plant elicitors and efficient mimics of the phytotoxin coronatine. Also, processes for producing the improved elicitors are provided, which allow a rapid and convenient access to large quantifies of the highly active compounds. Furthermore, there are compositions and plant protecting agents described, comprising as active ingredient a compound of the present invention. The plant protecting agents are useful for inducing resistance to pathogens in plants. The compositions may also be used to selectively induce senescence in fruit of plants.
本发明涉及的是6-取代的
吲哚酰
氨基酸共轭物,作为强效植物诱导剂和植物毒素冠状病毒的高效模拟剂,如本发明权利要求书1所定义的。同时,本发明提供了生产改进诱导剂的方法,该方法允许快速便捷地获得大量高活性化合物。此外,还描述了包括本发明化合物作为活性成分的组合物和植物保护剂。植物保护剂可用于诱导植物对病原体的抗性。组合物还可用于选择性诱导植物果实的衰老。
