Abstract
Syringotoxin produced by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae bacteria ca used a depolarisation of the membrane potentials (E(m)) in the Lemna g ibba cells, release of electrolytes from maize roots, the changes of t he oxidative metabolism of maize root mitochondria their swelling in t he presence of NADH and KCl and structural changes as well. The result s strongly suggest that ST acts in different ways on the lipid and the protein part of biomembranes in host plant cells.
