ABA Increases Susceptibility of Pepper Fruits to Infection of Anthracnose by Collectotrichum acutatum

Abstract: To examine the relationship between plant hormones and the development of pepper anthracnose, we investigated the effects of several plant hormones on the progression of disease symptoms. Of the five plant hormones examined, abscisic acid (ABA) increased the lesion length and disease incidence on detached fruits of Capsicum annuum cv. Nokkwang. The simultaneous application of ABA with inoculation of Colletotrichum acutatum JC24 resulted in increased lesion length, depending the concentration of ABA applied. Ad… Show more

“…The involvement of ABA in anthracnose development had been previously demonstrated in Colletotrichum acutatum-infected pepper fruits, where the enhanced susceptibility of the host was shown to be correlated with high ABA concentrations (Hwang et al, 2008). We obtained similar results in the C. graminicola-maize pathosystem, where an increased susceptibility in leaves to anthracnose development was observed after treatment with the phytohormone (Fig.…”

“…ABA treatment has been reported to increase the susceptibility of pepper (Capsicum annuum) fruits to anthracnose (Hwang et al, 2008). Based on the observation by Hwang et al (2008) as well as on the presence of ABA-responsive genes in our libraries, we hypothesize that ABA may alter plant defense mechanisms and contribute to anthracnose development in maize. To further explore the influence of ABA on plant defense, we tested the effect of exogenous ABA on the C. graminicola infection process and the expression of defense genes in maize leaves.…”

“…Además de estos factores, existen otros compuestos que ayudan al proceso de infección, tal es el caso de las fitohormonas, las cuales han mostrado aumentar con ácido abscísico la susceptibilidad a la infección de Colletotrichum actutatum en pimientos (Hwang et al, 2008), mientras que diversos autores reportan la producción de grandes cantidades de ácido indol acético durante la fase biotrófica de la infección causada Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Robinson et al, 1998;Maor et al, 2004;Hwang et al, 2008).…”

“…Algunas fitohormonas, tales como etileno, aceleran la senescencia y aumentar la susceptibilidad, mientras que los que retrasan la senescencia, tales como citoquinina y giberelina, tienden a aumentar la resistencia (Hwang et al, 2008).…”
