The activation of the defense response requires the recognition of an elicitor and the subsequent initiation of a signal transduction pathway, which then leads to the activation of defense genes and the production of phytoalexins. Plants respond to pathogen attack and environmental stimuli by activating a wide variety of defense reactions including transcriptional activation of genes involved in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, accumulation of antimicrobial phytoalexins, and ethylene production. Phenylpropanoid metabolism is a plant specific pathway that leads to the production of secondary metabolites including isoflavonoid phytoalexins, lignin, flavonoid pigments and UV protectants such as furanocoumarin. Here, we report the isolation of several , different clones that are involved in the plant defense response by screening of oil palm zygotic embryo and suspension culture cDNA libraries.These clones include phenylalanine ammonia- lyase (PAL) (4-4A, II F I and 12B1), S-adenosylmethionine synthetase I (Adomet synthetase I) (11 AI), peroxidase (7 A2), chitinase III (4A3), calmodulin (3E2), and beta-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) (3G 1).
