Seed-borne pathogens and electrical conductivity of soybean seeds

Abstract: Adequate procedures to evaluate seed vigor are important. Regarding the electrical conductivity test (EC), the interference in the test results caused by seed-borne pathogens has not been clarified. This research was carried out to study the influence of Phomopsis sojae and four treatments (control, seeds incubated without fungi, seeds incubated with Phomopsis and seeds incubated with Colletotrichum) were used with eight (5.5 mm large seeds) and six (6.5 mm large seeds) replications. All seeds submitted to PDA… Show more

“…The same pattern was followed by infected seeds treated with plasma, with decreases of about 12–25 % respect to IC. Considering that the base of EC test is the relation between the organizational level of cellular membranes and the quantity of leachates released to the soaking solution (Wain-Tassi et al., 2012), the amounts of leachates released by seeds indicate the speed of restoring cell membrane integrity (Carvalho et al., 2009). In this sense, the lower electrical conductivities showed by treated seeds (healthy or infected) compared to their correspondent controls, derived from low quantity of leachates released to the soaking solution due to the higher ability of seeds to restore the integrity of cell membranes within 24 h of imbibition.…”

“…The seeds were placed into a petri dish containing PotatoDextrose Agar (200 g of potato extract, 18 g of agar, 20 g of dextrose, and 1000 mL of distilled water), 10 seeds per petri dish and then incubated for 7 days at room temperature. A pure culture of each fungus was maintained on PDA for identification purposes (Wain-Tassi et al 2012).…”

“…Size and testa color are factors that affect the increase of electrical conductivity. According to Wain-Tassi et al (2012) small seeds of soybean may cause leakage of ions K + , Ca 2+ , and Mg 2+ , which is lower than the big ones. Correlation between moisture content, organization on cell membrane of the seeds and amount of leakage in soaking agent solution of the seeds is basic theory of electrical conductivity test (Wain-Tassi et al 2012).…”
