Dysfunction of the water-conducing system (Hopkins, 1989), caused by vascular occlusions (bacterial aggregates, host gum, and tyloses),
phytotoxin (Mircetich et al., 1976; Lee et al., 1982) and growth regulator imbalances (French and Kitajima, 1978) were proposed mechanisms of pathogenesis.
The study highlights the persistence of the photo-degraded
phytotoxin, particularly potent in the exotic species of the plant, and its enhanced effects against the native species of Phragmites, which is becoming increasingly endangered in the United States.
<<As far as Paul Ehrlich is concerned, we need to select his most important contributions, his investigations on ricin (the <<toxalbumin>> or Lectin of the castor bean), and on abrin (a powerful
phytotoxin of the precatory bean) going back to 1891 and following directly those of Behring's.
Wang H, Li J, Bostock RM, Gilchrist DG (1996) Apoptosis: a functional paradigm for programmed plant cell death induced by a host-selective
phytotoxin and invoked during development.
GABA has also been discussed as a
phytotoxin with the possibility of reducing insect predation.

Johns (1989) concluded that the Andean clays might thus be employed to bind the bitter
phytotoxin, solanine, in potatoes into an insoluble precipitate, rendering the tubers palatable.
Reduction in solanapyrone
phytotoxin production by Ascochyta rabiei transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
Drought also increased
phytotoxin concentration and accumulated in insects feed on that stressed plants and therefore, can accumulate in the body of their natural enemies and could influence fitness of natural enemies in terms of growth and development (Soler et al., 2012).
