| Uptake and Exudation of Phenolic Compounds by Wheat and Antimicrobial Components of the Root Exudate  | | | Abstract
| In the course of our study, it was found that phenyl propenoic acid derivatives were readily taken up by wheat. Leaf leachate components were chosen for the feeding experiments and /j-coumaric acid, ferulic acid and caffeic acid were found to be quickly taken up into the plants via the roots. The analytical study revealed that the exudate contained potent antim i crobial compounds together with amino acids and sugars. Besides the primary metabolites, 4-hydroxystyrene, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxystyrene and 3-methoxy-4-acetoxystyrene were identified as exudate components from wheat roots in sterile hydroponic culture. This indicates that these antimicrobial components may play a significant role in the defense system as allelochemicals for the rhizosphere. | | |
