Use of campestrin in inducing plant immunity and enhancing plant disease resistance
By using natural Camalexin as a signaling molecule, the plant's immune response is directly activated, filling the gap in the application of Camalexin in the plant immune network. This achieves rapid and precise plant protection, and has broad applicability and environmental friendliness.

AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, Camalexin is mainly regarded as an end product of plant disease resistance response. Its potential to actively activate early immune signaling networks has not been fully recognized, and there is a lack of research and application as a plant immune inducer.
Using unmodified natural Camalexin as a signaling molecule, the immune response of plants is directly activated through foliar spraying or pressure immersion injection, including hypersensitivity response, reactive oxygen species burst, calcium ion influx, and MAPK cascade reaction.
It achieves rapid and precise triggering of early plant immune signals, demonstrating broad-spectrum applicability and environmentally friendly plant protection effects. It breaks the technical bias that Camalexin is only for disease resistance results and provides a highly efficient and controllable biopesticide formulation.
