Abstract
Vanadium compounds increased the content and release of distinct isoflavones in a Trifolium pratense suspension culture. Regarding transport-mechanism inhibitors, the process was mostly facilitated by ABC proteins and vesicular transport. The transport of isoflavones and other secondary metabolites is an important part of metabolism within plants and cultures in vitro regarding their role in defence against various abiotic and biotic stressors. This research focuses on the way how to increase production and exudation of isoflavones by application of chemical elicitor and the basic identification of their transport mechanisms across cell membranes. The release of five isoflavones (genistin, genistein, biochanin A, daidzein, and formononetin) into a nutrient medium was determined in a Trifolium pratense var. DO-8 suspension culture after two vanadium compound treatments and cultivation for 24 and 48 h. The NH4VO3 solution caused a higher concentration of isoflavones in the medium after 24 h. This increased content of secondary metabolites was subsequently suppressed by distinct transport-mechanism inhibitors. The transport of isoflavones in T. pratense was mostly affected by ABC inhibitors from the multidrug-resistance-associated protein subfamily, but the genistein concentration in the medium was lower after treatment with multidrug-resistance protein subfamily inhibitors. Brefeldin A, which blocks vesicular transport, also decreased the concentration of some isoflavones in the nutrient medium.

Abstract
The family Fabaceae traditionally serves as a food and herbal remedies source. Certain plants serve for treatment of menopausal symptoms based on a presence of typical secondary metabolites, isoflavones. Beside soybean and clovers, other plants or cultures in vitro can produce these molecules. A cultivation in vitro can be enhanced by elicitation that stimulates metabolites biosynthesis via stress reaction. Vanadium compounds have been already described as potential elicitors, and the aim of this study was to determine the impact of NH₄VO₃ and VOSO₄ solutions on isoflavones production in Genista tinctoria L. cell cultures. The significant increase of isoflavones content, such as genistin, genistein, or formononetin, was measured in a nutrient medium or dry mass after NH₄VO₃ treatment for 24 or 48 h. The possible transport mechanism of isoflavones release as a result of elicitation was further evaluated. An incubation with different transport inhibitors prior to elicitation took effect on isoflavones content in the medium. However, there was a non-ended result for particular metabolites such as genistein and daidzein, where ATP-binding cassette (ABC) or, alternatively, multidrug and toxin extrusion (MATE) proteins can participate. Possible elicitation by some inhibitors was discussed as a result of their pleiotropic effect. Despite this outcome, the determination of the transport mechanism is an important step for identification of the specific transporter.

Abstract
During effective symbiosis, rhizobia colonize their hosts, and avoid plant defence mechanisms. To determine whether the host defence responses can be elicited by the symbiotic bacteria, specific markers involved in incompatible pathogenic interactions are required. The available markers of alfalfa defence mechanisms are described and their use in the study of the symbiotic interaction discussed. As defence-related gene expression in roots is not always related to defence mechanisms, other model systems have been established allowing confirmation of an important role of bacterial surface components in alfalfa-Rhizobium meliloti interactions. Nod factors at high concentrations have been shown to elicit defence-like responses in Medicago cell suspensions and roots. Elicitation of defence mechanisms by high levels of Nod factors in Rhizobium-infected roots may be a part of the mechanism by which nodulation is feed-back regulated.

Abstract
Phytoalexin synthesis is a defence-response- that is characterized by a requirement for a number of distinct elements, all of which must be present for the response to be expressed fully. These same elements: a signal, a cellular receptor, a signal transduction system and a responsive metabolic system, are also used to describe a stimulus-response system. A number of molecular species can function as signal molecules or elicitors of phytoalexin synthesis, including poly- and oligosaccharides, proteins and polypeptides, and fatty acids. Few receptors for elicitors have been identified but those that have been are proteins located on the plasma membrane of the plant. Induction of phytoalexin synthesis involves selective and co-ordinated activation of specific defence response genes, including those encoding the enzymes of phytoalexin synthesis, and these genes constitute the responsive metabolic system. The separate, and distant, locations of the receptor and the responsive genes means that the event in which the signal is perceived by the receptor must be relayed to the genes by means of a second messenger system. Several second messengers are candidates for such a coupling- or signal transduction-system, including udenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, Ca2+ , diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, active oxygen species and jasmonic acid. Each has been examined as a possible component of the signal transduction system mediating between the elicitor receptor interaction and the phytoalexin synthesis it induces. Analysis of the signalling events is made complex by the simultaneous solicitation by the invading micro-organism of several defence responses, each of which might involve elements of a different signal system. The same complexity is evident which the role of phytoalexin accumulation in resistance is analysed. Evaluation of the contribution made by phytoalexin accumulation towards resistance has been attempted by the use of various inhibitors and enhancers of the process. Transgenic and mutant plants with specific alterations in one or more ot those elements necessary for the plant to respond to the signals for phytoalexin synthesis and other defence responses, are beginning to aid resolution of the complex pattern ot signalling events and the respective roles of the inducible defence mechanisms in resistance.

Abstract
The phenylpropanoid pathway controls the synthesis of lignin, flower pigments, signalling molecules, and a large spectrum of compounds involved in plant defence against pathogens and UV light. More than 15 P450-dependent reactions have been characterised in this pathway. Several of these reactions constitute important regulatory branching points. Indirect and direct data indicate that distinct P450s catalyse the different reactions. The coding sequences of two enzymes have recently been determined. They belong to different P450 families, CYP73 and CYP75. The second enzyme of the main pathway, cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H), is the most extensively studied plant P450 and is suspected of playing an essential role in the regulation of the whole pathway.

Abstract
A 13 kb DNA fragment was isolated from a grapevine (Vitis var. Optima) genomic library by hybridizing with elicitor-induced stilbene synthase cDNA as a probe. After fragmentation with Eco RI, subcloning and sequencing, two full-size stilbene synthase genes (Vst1 and Vst2) and the 3' end of a third stilbene synthase gene (Vst3) were located within the 13 kb fragment. Vst1 and Vst2, differing only slightly in the coding region, are distinguished in the intron size and in the structure of the promoter region. The 5' flanking region of gene Vst1 contains a TATAA box at nucleotide -48. The substantial structural differences found for the promoters of the two genes are paralleled by a striking difference in the expression of the two genes in elicitor-treated cells. Moreover, the accumulation upon elicitation of six different stilbene synthase mRNAs was studied and found to differ by two orders of magnitude.

Abstract
The mechanisms controlling the induction of stilbene synthase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), two putative key regulatory enzymes of the biosynthetic pathway to stilbene phytoalexins, have been investigated. The induction was studied in cell suspension cultures of grape (Vitis cv. Optima) by treatment with fungal cell wall. Several independent cDNA clones for PAL and stilbene synthase were isolated from a cDNA library of fungal cell wall-induced grape cells and identified by sequence analysis. The stilbene synthase cDNA sequence of pSV21 predicted a protein of 392 amino acids and Mr 42,791, similar in size to that observed experimentally for immunodetected stilbene synthase. The cDNA sequences of pSV21 and pSV25 differed in 76 bp in the coding region. The sequences of grape stilbene synthase cDNAs exhibited significant homology to the sequence reported for the peanut stilbene synthase cDNA. Both PAL and stilbene synthase mRNA, measured by RNA blot hybridizations, were induced within 1 h of addition of fungal cell wall preparations to the cell cultures, rose to a maximum by the sixth hour, then declined slowly over the next 20 h. The activities of PAL and stilbene synthase were also induced in parallel, but reached their maximum at different times after fungal cell wall addition to the cell cultures. The induction patterns of stilbene synthase and PAL in grape and peanut are discussed.

Abstract
Stilbene synthase is responsible for the formation of resveratrol and other stilbenes which function in grapevine as phytoalexins. A full-length stilbene synthase cDNA was prepared from grapevine mRNA and sequenced. The insert in pSV25 coding for a polypeptide with 392 amino acids was inserted into the vectors pKK233-2 and pDS12/RBSII-2, respectively. Expression of the cDNA in Escherichia coli yielded an enzymatically active dimer exhibiting solely stilbene synthase activity. The protein was characterized by enzyme activity and Western blot analysis.
