| Abstract | Lipoxygenases (LOXs, EC 1.13.11.12) are a class of non-heme iron containing dioxygenases which catalyze
the regiospecific and stereospecific hydroperoxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids with 1,4-pentadiene system such as
linoleic acid and linolenic acid in plants. In this work we studied the LOX activity in damaged as well as in distal leaves in
response to specialist (Agraulis vanillae vanillae) or generalist (Spodoptera frugiperda) insect attack. Enzymatic assays
showed that induction of LOX activity occurred locally and systemically in response to both insects’ attacks. Northern
blot analysis revealed that LOX expression is also insect-inducible in agreement with enzymatic assay results. In addition,
northern analysis corroborated previous reports that LOX activity is wound- and methyl jasmonate-inducible. These results
suggest that the herbivore-response in passion fruit is mediated by jasmonates, since a key enzyme of the biosynthetic
pathway of jasmonic acid is induced upon lepidopteran insects’ attacks. | pt_BR |
