Abstract
Gamay cell cultures were treated with dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrins in o rder to ascertain their effect on resveratrol metabolism before and af ter inoculation with Xylophilus ampelinus. The results showed that, in grapevine cell suspensions, dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrins themselves do not need the co-cultivation with bacteria to act as elicitors of the cells producing trans-resveratrol, a phytoalexin of grapevines. Dimeth yl-beta-cyclodextrins protected cell suspensions against bacteria by m aintaining a high level of peroxidase activity.
