Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to plants with increased resistance to plant pathogens, wherein the intracellular concentration of inositol pyrophosphate InsP7 and/or InsP8 in said plants is increased in comparison to the wild-type plant. In particular, the invention involves plants with increased expression of at least one protein involved in the synthesis of inositol pyrophosphates InsP7 and/or InsP8, such as, for example, proteins VIH2 and VIH1. The plants according to the invention are particularly resistant to the following plant pathogens: herbivore insects, for example larvae of agriculturally relevant pests, pathogenic fungi, such as necrotrophic fungi, or other plant pests, such as biotrophic pathogens. The invention further relates to the method for increasing plant resistance to plant pathogens, wherein the intracellular concentration of inositol pyrophosphates InsP7 and/or InsP8 is increased in comparison to the wild-type plant.
