“…Even though plant disease response to host plant nutrition in horticultural and field crops has been reported (Forsyth, 1957;Gallegly and Walter, 1949;Platero and Tejerina, 1976;Walker, 1946), we found no reports on the effects of host plant nutrition, growth medium pH, and rust interaction in dry bean. Very little information is available about the effects of host nutrition on rust development, although other aspects of the disease have been studied thoroughly (Gersbeck and Schonbeck, 1988).…”

Nine bean cultivars/lines (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) were grown in three soils/ rooting media at pH values of 7.9, 6.5, and 5.8 in greenhouse, growth chamber, and field experiments to evaluate the leaf reaction of the plants to a Nebraska bean rust [Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers.) Unger var. appendiculatus] isolate US85-NP-10-1. Significant differences were observed for rust pustule diameter between cultivars/lines grown in the three growth media. Plants grown in the medium at pH 5.8 showed significantly larger rust pustule diameters than those of plants grown at pH 6.5 or 7.9. A significant interaction occurred between growth medium and cultivars/lines for the rust reaction. Concentrations of Cl and Mn in leaves were positively correlated with rust pustule diameter. In contrast, concentration of K in leaves was negatively correlated with rust pustule diameter. Plant breeders attempting to improve beans for rust resistance must consider the growth medium pH in evaluating intensity and severity of rust symptoms on leaves.

“…, 1988). A high calcium content in crops is often positively related to increased resistance against bacterial diseases, including potato blackleg (Platero & Tejerina, 1976; McGuire & Kelman, 1984; Berry et al. , 1988).…”

Control of blackleg and tuber soft rot of potato caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya species: a review

et al. 2011

This paper briefly reviews research on the causative agents of blackleg and soft rot diseases of potato, namely Pectobacterium and Dickeya species, and the disease syndrome, including epidemiological and aetiological aspects. It critically evaluates control methods used in practice based on the avoidance of the contamination of plants, in particular the use of seed testing programmes and the application of hygienic procedures during crop production. It considers the perspective of breeding and genetic modification to introduce resistance. It also evaluates the application of physical and chemical tuber treatments to reduce inoculum load and examines the possibility of biocontrol using antagonistic bacteria and bacteriophages.

“…A high calcium content of hosts has been correlated with increased resistance to several diseases (Bateman & Lumsden, 1965;Bateman & Millar, 1966;Forster & Echandi, 1975;Platero & Tejerina, 1976). Plants have been grown in nutrient conditions of varying Ca'"*" content and Bateman & Lumsden (1965) suggested that, when levels of Ca'"*" were high, pectin was converted to calcium pectate which was resistant to the action of PG.…”

“…Ca^+ is also regarded as an important secondary messenger in the elicitation of phytoalexins (Zook et ai, 1987). Interactions between Ca^"^ and other cations also occur; for example Platero & Tejerina (1976) showed that potassium uptake is inversely related to calcium availability, and its concentration in the plant tissues decreased as the calcium concentration increased. It is therefore possible that differences in concentration of Ca^ * between cultivars or even cells of the same tuber may affect the efficiency with which those cells can respond to a pathogen.…”
