Trichoderma viride cellulase induces resistance to the antibiotic pore-forming peptide alamethicin associated with changes in the plasma membrane lipid composition of tobacco BY-2 cells

Table 1 Alamethicin resistance of tobacco cells treated with CM for different times before transfer to Control medium.

Incubation in CM-medium (min)	Postincubation in Control medium (min)	Resistance (%)
240	0	71 ± 1.4
20	220	84 ± 5.6
0	240	25 ± 3.0

Resistance was measured as per cent of respiration rate remaining after 10 min incubation with 20 µg ml^-1 alamethicin compared to the initial rate. Average of two independent experiments are shown with error bars representing SD.
