“…Upon infection by pathogens, the host phenolic compounds may increase and contribute to enhance the mechanical strength of host cell walls by the synthesis of lignin and suberin that are involved in the formation of physical barriers that can block the spread of pathogens (Ngadze et al, 2012;Singh et al, 2014). In the present study, the amount of total phenol was significantly higher in virus infected leaves (Fig.…”

A B S T R A C TVirus infection can result in the alteration of physiological, biochemical and metabolic processes within plants leading to symptom development. Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) is one of the most destructive viral diseases in Tropical Asia, Pacific Indian Oceania (PIO) regions and Africa leading to 100% yield loss in banana and plantains. Though molecular characterization and their diversity were studied in depth in recent years, information on physiological and biochemical changes during banana-BBTV interaction is still not convincingly explained. Therefore, the present investigation was conducted to find out the quantifiable changes in physiological and biochemical parameters such as proteins, pigment and carbohydrate content, phenolic compounds, polyphenol oxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POX), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in leaves of banana cultivars Grand Nain (AAA) and Virupakshi (AAB). The amount of carbohydrate contents, phenolic compounds, PPO, POX, APX, GPX, CAT were significantly higher in BBTV infected leaves of both the cultivars over the healthy, whereas total protein content, pigments and SOD activity showed an opposite trend. Overall the results suggest that BBTV infection induces significant changes in enzyme levels leading to irreversible symptom development. Further studies would lead to identification of biochemical markers for studying plant-virus compatible and incompatible interactions.

Leaf curl disease caused by Cotton Leaf Curl Burewala virus (CLCuBuV) has been recognized as serious threat to cotton in Indian subcontinent. However, information about cotton-CLCuBuV interaction is still limited. In this study, the level of phenolic compounds, total soluble proteins, and malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), peroxidase (POX), catalase (CAT), proteases, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) were studied in leaves of two susceptible (CIM-496 & NIAB-111) and two resistant (Ravi and Co Tiep Khac) cotton genotypes. Disease symptoms were mild in the resistant genotypes but were severe in highly susceptible genotypes. The results showed that phenolic compounds, proteins, PAL, POX, CAT, proteases, SOD, PPO, and MDA play an active role in disease resistance against CLCuBuV. The amount of total phenols, proteases, MDA, and PPO was significantly higher in leaves of CLCuBuV-inoculated plants of both resistant genotypes as in non-inoculated plants, and decreased in CLCuBuV-inoculated plants of both susceptible genotypes over their healthy plants. POX, protein content, SOD, and PAL activities showed lower values in resistant genotypes, while they decreased significantly in susceptible genotypes as compared to the noninoculated plants except PAL, which showed non-significant decrease. CAT was found to be increased in both susceptible and resistant genotypes with maximum percent increase in resistant genotype Ravi, as compared to non-inoculated plants. The results showed significantly higher concentrations of total phenols and higher activity of protease, MDA, SOD, and PPO in resistant genotype Ravi after infection with CLCuBuV, suggesting that there is a correlation between constitutive induced levels of these enzymes and plant resistance that could be considered as biochemical markers for studying plant-virus compatible and incompatible interactions.

“…A number of reports are available that indicate an increased activity of POXs in response to phenolic compounds. For example, seedlings treated with ellagic, ferulic or cinnamic acids under both normal or abiotic stress conditions was found to significantly enhance POX activity (Li et al, 2011;Abu El-Soud et al, 2013 andSingh &Kaur, 2014). Also, we found that coumarin seed pretreatment caused obvious stimulation in the activities of both PAL and POX in wheat seedlings under salinity stress .…”

“…Also in a previous study, we found that application of 1.0 mM coumarin significantly enhance the activities of both amylase and protease as well as the accumulation of soluble sugars and proteins in Vicia faba seedlings under salt stress (Saleh et al, 2014). Other study showed that ferulic acid increased the activity of proteases in mung bean hypocotyls (Singh & Kaur, 2014). Similarly, pretreatment of cucumber seedlings with 0.5 mM ferulic acid had protected them from dehydration stress and resulted in accumulation of soluble sugars in their leaves (Li et al, 2013).…”

H IGHER plants produce many phytochemical constituents that not only play a pivotal role in plants producing them, but also affect their neighboring plant communities. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fenugreek seed extract on the growth of faba bean (Vicia faba) and maize (Zea mays) seedlings. The allelochemical components of fenugreek seed extract were analysed and confirmed the abundance of vanillic, syringic, 4-hydroxycinnamic, sinapic, caffeic, salicylic and p-hydroxybenzoic, ferulic acids as well as coumarin. Fenugreek seed extract up to 1.0 % (w/v) efficiently enhanced the growth as well as the chlorophyll content of faba bean and maize seedlings. Furthermore, elevated levels of the amylolytic and proteolytic activities under these concentrations of fenugreek treatments were associated with a marked accumulation of soluble sugars and proteins. Moreover, the potentiality of fenugreek treatments to accumulate phenolic and flavonoid was associated with stimulation in the activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase, peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase as well as a marked enhancement in total antioxidant capacity which would improve the plant antioxidant status. Concerning the membrane integrity, fenugreek treatments caused a pronounced retardation in both MDA and H 2 O 2 content. Our results elucidated the effect of fenugreek seed extract on the growth and some physiological behaviors of both faba bean and maize seedlings.
