Biochemical changes occurred in roots of bur marigold and grapevine infected with Longidorus africanus. Phenols of infected root tips differed quantitatively from those of healthy root tips (optical density of 0.68 and 0.32, respectively). Column chromatography of the phenol extracts resulted in more fractions in the infected than in the healthy root extract. Of the enzymes involved in phenol m...
