Application of dodecylbenzenesulfonate (DBS) to half leaves of Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi nc. before TMV inoculation resulted in a marked decrease in lesion number and size as well as in virus content of the lesions in the untreated half leaves. Systemic induction of resistance in untreated leaves of the plants was not detected.
