Plants have developed complex molecular strategies to face the attack of a pathogen in order to maintain their survival, and phytohormones are known to play a crucial role in plantpathogen interactions. The aim of this study is to elucidate the role of phytohormones in Fusarium circinatum virulence, the causal agent of pitch canker disease, known as one of the most important pathogens of conifers worldwide.
