The study investigated whether gaseous methyl jasmonate (MeJa) can induce stilbene accumulation and synthesis potential in response to an abiotic stress (ultraviolet light) in grapevine leaves and berries. It was found that a very low level of atmospheric MeJa (400 nmol/L) can increase stilbene contents in these two organs, although response to MeJa is different between leaves and berries. In leaves MeJa mainly enhances trans-piceid accumulation, while in berries it stimulates trans-resveratrol… Expand
