the chemical compound dl-?-amino-n-butyric acid (baba) has been introduced as a promoter of induction of resistance in plants against plant pathogens. in this study, promotion of induction of some such defense compounds as peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase enzymes through dl-?-amino-n-butyric acid application against root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) was investigated in cucumber. result...

biological control of root-knot nematode meloidogyne javanica by application of pseudomonas fluorescens cha0 was evaluated under greenhouse condition. results showed that p. fluorescens (109 cfuml-1) as shoot spray significantly reduced in no. of eggmass and egg per individual eggmass as comparison to control. application p. fluorescens as shoot spray induced systemic activation of peroxidase (...

systemic induction of peroxidase and polyphenoloxidase in tomato roots and stem followed by application of split root system method was investigated. root system of tomato seedling in the sixth growth stage were divided in two equal sections after washing and replanted in two adjacent pots and then inoculated with nematode and fungus as fallowing treatments. the second treatment was inoculation...

abstract pythium aphanidermatum is one of the most important agent of root and foot rot of cucumber, particularly in the warm humid climate. induction of host resistance by microorganisms or by the synthetic compounds is recently considered as one of the biological control method of disease. trichoderma harzianum bi is a good candidate for induction of resistance in plant against diseases. the ...

fire blight, caused by the bacterium erwinia amylovora, is one of the most destructive diseases of plants in the rosaceae subfamily pomoideae. the objective of this study was to determine the level of resistance of 30 pear cultivars and describe the biochemical changes induced in some resistant and susceptible cultivars. the level of resistance was determined by the length of the fire blight le...

abstractbackground and objectives: the cultivated tobacco (nicotiana tabacum) is a tropical and annual plant, consisting of a number of species or hybrids belonging to the solanaceae family. bio-chemical reaction to viral infection is different for various plants .one of the most important defensive mechanisms of the host plant against pathogen agents, is biochemical defense and their related c...

in this study, we present changes of peroxidase (e. c. 1.11.1. 7) activities in the root of brassica napus var. okapi during rosette stage until ripening of the fruits. peroxidase activity was determined seasonally over an eight month period. results showed that total peroxidase activity in the root was highest in mid june and the lowest activities were observed from time of winter dormancy unt...
