In the local defense response, there are two ways of short-distance transmission of the JA signal. First, the systemin produced by the wounding acts as a signaling molecule, which is transmitted to the adjacent site through the apoplast and phloem to activate the JA cascade reaction pathway. Second, JA and JA-Ile induced by systemin act as signals and are transported to adjacent sites for defensive responses
