BABA-influenced changes within the mevalonate pathway. The effect of 10Â mM BABA on transcripts encoding genes within the mevalonate pathway in leaves of potato. BABA caused a down-regulation of several transcripts involved with sterol biosynthesis, whereas transcripts involved with sesquiterpene phytoalexin biosynthesis were up-regulated. Transcripts with significantly changed expression (adj. p-value <0.05) are denoted in red (up-regulation) and green (down-regulation).
