rabiei, the causal agent of Ascochyta blight of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), and toxin production-by the wild type
Ascochyta rabiei is the causal agent of blight of chickpea, an important food legume crop for human populations in Developing Countries. All reliably identified isolates of the fungus produce toxins in culture, known as the solanapyrones, of which solanapyrone A is the most frequently found and also the most toxic. The principal aim of the project was to determine the role of this toxin in the ...
متن کاملBiochemical and molecular biological studies on infection (Ascochyta rabiei)-induced thaumatin-like proteins from chickpea plants (Cicer arietinum L.).
A pathogenesis-related protein induced by infection with Ascochyta rabiei was purified from intercellular washing fluid of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) leaves. Amino-terminal sequencing identified the protein, named PR-5a, as a thaumatin-like protein. The isoelectric point was determined with 6.5 and the molecular mass is 16 kDa. Therefore, chickpea PR-5a is the first dicot member of a TLP sub...
متن کاملGenetical Analysis of Ascochyta Blight Resistance in Chickpea
Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab. is a devastating disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) worldwide. Available genetic variation for Ascochyta blight resistance in genus Cicer has prompted interest in the development and use of resistant cultivars that can be sown in autumn and, to increase seed yield in chickpea. Understanding the mode of inheritance of resistance to ...
متن کاملAn Update on Genetic Resistance of Chickpea to Ascochyta Blight
Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. is an important and widespread disease of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) worldwide. The disease is particularly severe under cool and humid weather conditions. Breeding for host resistance is an efficient means to combat this disease. In this paper, attempts have been made to summarize the progress made in identifying resistance sour...
متن کاملAccumulation of Phenolic Compounds and Phytoalexins in Sliced and Elicitor-Treated Cotyledons of Cicer arietinum L
Cicer arietinum, Ascochyta rabiei, Elicitor. Isoflavones, Phytoalexins Upon slicing cotyledons of chickpea, Cicer arietinum L ., accumulate the pterocarpan phyto alexins medicarpin and maackiain. Treatment of this tissue with an elicitor from the phytopathogenic deuteromycete Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab. greatly enhances accumulation of the pterocarpans and of other isoflavones and flavonoids...
