induction of resistance in apple fruit inoculated with antagonistic candida membranifaciens isolates and botrytis mali

Control of Postharvest Decay of Apple Fruit with Candida saitoana and Induction of Defense Responses.

ABSTRACT The ability of Candida saitoana to induce systemic resistance in apple fruit against Botrytis cinerea was investigated. To separate the antagonistic activity of C. saitoana from its ability to induce resistance, the antagonist and the pathogen were applied in spatially separated wounds. In fresh apples, C. saitoana applied 0 or 24 h before inoculation with B. cinerea showed no effect o...

evolutionary origin and phylogenetic relationships among fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis isolates in iran and their relationship with nonpathogenic isolates

پژمردگی فوزاریومی خربزه و طالبی با عامل fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis از بیماری های مهم قارچی در مناطق رشد این گیاهان می باشد. جدایه های f. oxysporum از گیاهان و خاک ریزوسفر متعلق به پنج استان مهم تولیدکننده ی خربزه و طالبی جداسازی شد و بر پایه ی بیماری زایی در ارقام افتراقی، گروه های سازگاری رویشی (vegetative compatibility groups)، توالی سنجی ناحیه ی جداکننده ی بین ژنی دی اِن اِی ریبوزومی (n...

Induction of Resistance Mediated by an Attenuated Strain of Valsa mali var. mali Using Pathogen-Apple Callus Interaction System

To study the induced resistance in apple against Valsa mali var. mali (Vmm), a Vmm-apple callus interaction system was developed to evaluate the induced resistance of an attenuated Vmm strain LXS081501 against further infection by a virulent Vmm strain LXS080601. The infection index was up to 97.32 for apple calli inoculated with LXS080601 alone at 15 days after inoculation whereas it was only ...

Detection of Botrytis cinerea field isolates with multiple fungicide resistance

Induction of Systemic Resistance by Trichoderma harzianum Isolates in Pistachio Plants in-Fected with Verticillium dahliae

Twenty isolates of Trichoderma harzianum wereisolated from the rhizosphere of healthy pistachio plants from different localities of Kerman Province, Iran.Five isolates with high antagonistic activity in in vitro assays against Verticillium dahliae (the causal agent of pistachio wilt), were investigated for their effect on the defense enzymes, peroxidase (PO), phenyl alanine-ammonia lyase (PAL) ...

Thyme and Savory Essential Oil Efficacy and Induction of Resistance against Botrytis cinerea through Priming of Defense Responses in Apple

The efficacy of thyme and savory essential oils were investigated against Botrytis cinerea on apple fruit. Apples treated with thyme and savory essential oils showed significantly lower gray mold severity and incidence. Thyme essential oil at 1% concentration showed the highest efficacy, with lower disease incidence and smaller lesion diameter. The expression of specific pathogenesis-related (P...
