ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods for inducing or increasing disease resistance in a plant. The invention also features methods of using a plant having a mutation in an inducible isochorismate synthase to determine if the success of a pathogen in infecting a plant is affected by a plant disease resistance pathway involving isochorismate synthase.
