چکیده

Rabbit antibody to cutinase-I, isolated from Fusarium solani f. pisi, was conjugated to ferritin. With this ferritin-conjugated antibody it was shown that germinating spores of this fungus excreted cutinase during the penetration of the host pisum sativum. This result constitutes the most specific and strongest evidence for an enzymic penetration of a plant cuticle by a pathogen during infection.

Mechanism by which contact with plant cuticle triggers cutinase gene expression in the spores of Fusarium solani f. sp. pisi.

Spores of the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium solani f. sp. pisi were shown to produce the extracellular enzyme, cutinase, only when cutin or cutin hydrolysate was added to the spore suspension. Dihydroxy-C(16) acid and trihydroxy-C(18) acid, which are unique cutin monomers, showed the greatest cutinase-inducing activity. Experiments with several compounds structurally related to these fatty ac...

The thermal stability of the Fusarium solani pisi cutinase as a function of pH

We have investigated the thermal stability of the Fusarium solani pisi cutinase as a function of pH, in the range from pH 2-12. Its highest enzymatic activity coincides with the pH-range at which it displays its highest thermal stability. The unfolding of the enzyme as a function of pH was investigated by microcalorimetry. The ratio between the calorimetric enthalpy (DeltaH(cal)) and the van't ...

Ethylene: Symptom, Not Signal for the Induction of Chitinase and beta-1,3-Glucanase in Pea Pods by Pathogens and Elicitors.

Infection of immature pea pods with Fusarium solani f.sp. phaseoli (a non-pathogen of peas) or f.sp. pisi (a pea pathogen) resulted in induction of chitinase and beta-1,3-glucanase. Within 30 hours, activities of the two enzymes increased 9-fold and 4-fold, respectively. Chitinase and beta-1,3-glucanase were also induced by autoclaved spores of the two F. solani strains and by the known elicito...

Cutinase and pectinase in cotton bioscouring: an innovative and fast bioscouring process

This manuscript describes the potential of a cutinase from the fungus Fusarium solani pisi for cotton wax degradation in order to design an efficient low temperature scouring process. The main characteristics, relevant to cotton wax removal with F. solani pisi cutinase are given. The additive effect of cutinase on pectinase was investigated and optimum incubation conditions were determined. Com...

تأثیر دو قارچ میکوریز Glomus mosseae و Glomus intraradices بر بیماری پوسیدگی ریشه نخود‌فرنگی با عامل Fusarium solani f. sp. pisi در شرایط گلخانه‌ای

در این مطالعه تأثیر دو قارچ Glomus mosseae و G. intraradices به تنهایی و ترکیب آن‌ها بر فاکتورهای رشد، میزان کلروفیل و بیماری پوسیدگی ریشه نخود‌فرنگی با عامل Fusarium solani f.sp. pisi در شرایط گلخانه‌ای ارزیابی شد. آزمایش به‌صورت فاکتوریل در قالب طرح پایه‌ای کاملاً تصادفی با هشت تیمار و چهار تکرار انجام شد. براساس نتایج به‌دست‌آمده همه تیمار‌‌های مربوط به قارچ‌های میکوریز باعث افزایش فاکتورهای ...
