Cell wall is one of the first lines of defence used by plants to restrict invading fungal
pathogens. Lignin is a complex polymer of hydroxylated and methoxylated phenylpropane
units (monolignols). Cell wall lignification can establish mechanical barriers to pathogen
invasion and renders the cell wall more resistant to pathogen attack. Compatible salt-
tolerant rhizosphere microbe-mediated induction of phenylpropanoid cascade and induced
systemic responses against Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoemaker causing spot blotch …
