“…The CAT, POX and APX enzymes are involved in the early responses of plants to pathogen attacks, as they are associated with the oxidative burst, when ROS are produced and programmed cell death (POD) may occur (Chittoor et al, 1999;Garcia-Limones et al, 2002;Mohammadi and Kazemi, 2002;Lvanov et al, 2005). The present results on plant growth confirmed that the fluctuation in enzyme activity correlated with the degree of injury in wheat plants (Fig.…”

Inoculating wheat (cv. Giza 164) with various Fusarium species had different effects on the catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity in different plant tissues. The CAT activity induced in the shoots of wheat plants by some pathogens (F. merismoides, F. moniliforme, F. poae and F. sambucinum) was relatively higher than that induced by other pathogens. The results showed an increase in POX activity in infected shoots except those inoculated with F. sambucinum, where the POX activity decreased. Inoculating wheat plants with individual Fusarium species or with a mixture of pathogens caused an increase in APX in the shoots, except for those treated with F. poae, where the APX activity decreased. The activity of these antioxidant enzymes thus increased in most cases in the shoot system of wheat plants under Fusarium infection. Investigations on the metabolic activity of wheat plants inouculated with individual Fusarium species or with a mixture of pathogens showed higher contents of all the protein fractions, soluble sugars, total free amino acids and proline. The K + and Ca 2+concentrations decreased to various extents in different cases. The Na + content increased in wheat shoots, especially after inoculation with F. merismoides. The results signify that the most serious infection was caused by F. culmorum, F. graminearum and F. oxysporum and by a mixture of all the Fusarium species.

SOD activity was similar in both resistant and susceptible cultivars of chickpea and increased after Fusarium oxysporum invasion, but resistant cultivar showed earlier increasing in SOD activity (Garcia-Limones et al 2002).…”

Sunflower, Helianthus annuus L., is a major oil-seed crop widely cultivated throughout the globe. White mold, caused by necrotrophic pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, is a common and widespread disease of sunflower. Changes in various physiological activities such as production of malondialdehyde (MDA) as the main end product of lipid peroxidation, enzymatic and non-enzymatic activities and proline content, were investigated in leaves and stems of sunflower lines either resistant or susceptible to S. sclerotiorum. The results showed accumulation of high amount of free proline in the leaves of the resistant line. S. sclerotiorum invasion resulted in increase in the MDA content in both lines compared to the controls. Superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase and guaiacol peroxidase activities significantly increased in the stem and leaves of inoculated lines. In the resistant line, Sclerotinia infection significantly induced catalase (CAT) activity both in the stem and leaves of contaminated plants. The activity of CAT was significantly decreased in susceptible line. Based on our results the activity of antioxidant enzymes was much pronounced in sunflower resistant line than in susceptible one. Studied lines showed distinctive activity considering different biochemical parameters, which may point to further directions in exploring host-pathogen interaction and lead to selection and production of new lines to achieve an improvement of plant adaptation to pathogen.

García-Limones et al (2002) observed higher activities of both SOD and CAT in stems of a susceptible cultivar of chickpea infected by Fusarium oxysporum, and no changes were found when the interaction between chickpea and F. oxysporum was incompatible.

Active oxygen species can reinforce plant cell-walls, act as toxic agents against the pathogens and/or participate as second messengers in routes leading to the activation of plant defenserelated genes (García-Limones et al, 2002).

Verticillium dahliae Kleb. is a vascular pathogen that alters water status and growth of pepper plants and causes drastic reductions in yield. Its control is difficult because it can survive in field soil for several years. The application of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) as bioprotector agents against V. dahliae is an alternative to the use of chemicals which, in addition, is more respectful with the environment. The establishment of the mutualistic association of plant roots and AMF involves a continuous cellular and molecular dialogue between both symbionts that includes the preactivation of plant defense responses that may enhance the resistance or tolerance of mycorrhizal plants to soil-borne pathogens. Some AMF can improve the resistance of Capsicum annuum L. against V. dahliae. This is especially relevant for pepper cultivars (i.e. cv. Piquillo) that exhibit high susceptibility to this pathogen. Compared with non-mycorrhizal plants, mycorrhizal pepper can exhibit more balanced antioxidant metabolism in leaves along the first month after pathogen inoculation, which may contribute to delay both the development of disease symptoms and the decrease of photosynthesis in Verticillium-inoculated plants with the subsequent benefit for yield. In stems, mycorrhizal pepper show earlier and higher deposition of lignin in xylem vessels than nonmycorrhizal plants, even in absence of the pathogen. Moreover, AMF can induce new isoforms of acidic chitinases and superoxide dismutase in roots. Mycorrhizal-specif ic induction of these enzymatic activities together with enhanced peroxidase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase in roots may also be involved in the bioprotection of Verticillium-induced wilt in pepper by AMF.Additional key words: biological control, Capsicum annuum, mycorrhizal symbiosis, Verticillium dahliae Kleb. ResumenRevisión. Los hongos micorrícico arbusculares (MA) como agentes bioprotectores del pimiento frente a la seca inducida por Verticillium spp.Verticillium dahliae Kleb. altera el estado hídrico y el crecimiento de las plantas de pimiento y reduce la producción del fruto. El empleo de hongos micorrícico arbusculares (MA) como bioprotectores contra V. dahliae es una alternativa al uso de productos químicos más respetuosa para el medio ambiente. La asociación entre las raí-ces de las plantas y los hongos MA conlleva un diálogo celular y molecular entre ambos simbiontes, que incluye la preactivación de respuestas de defensa en la planta, lo cual puede incrementar la resistencia o tolerancia de las plantas micorrizadas hacia los patógenos edáficos. Algunos hongos MA incrementan la resistencia del pimiento (Capsicum annuum L.) contra V. dahliae. Esto es especialmente relevante cuando el cultivar (cv. Piquillo, por ejemplo) es muy susceptible hacia el patógeno. En comparación con las plantas no micorrizadas, las hojas de las plantas de pimiento micorrizadas muestran un metabolismo antioxidante más equilibrado a lo largo del primer mes tras la inoculación del patógeno, lo que puede retrasar el desc...
