Induction of defence related enzymes and phenolic compounds in lupin (Lupinus albus L.) and their effects on host resistance against Fusarium wilt

Ameliorating the Adverse Effects of Tomato mosaic tobamovirus Infecting Tomato Plants in Egypt by Boosting Immunity in Tomato Plants Using Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles

“…Proline is a non-enzymatic antioxidant capable of stabilizing subcellular materials such as cell membranes, proteins, buffering redox potential, and scavenging free radicals under stress conditions. In addition, it has the capacity of molecular chaperones to maintain protein validity and improve the functioning of various enzymes, such as nitrate reductase resistance under biotic stress conditions [ 48 , 49 ]. Proline is also the only compatible molecule to protect plants against single oxygen and radical damage caused by excess ROS, among the many compatible solutes [ 45 ].…”

Achievements and Challenges in Legume Breeding for Pest and Disease Resistance

“…It can also cause yield reductions in common bean (Abawi and PastorCorrales, 1989), soybean , lupin (Lupinus spp.) (Abd El-Rahman et al, 2012), cowpea (Pottorff et al, 2012), pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) (Marley and Hillocks, 1996), alfalfa (Antonopoulos and Elena, 2008), birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus) (Wunsch et al, 2009) and red clover (Venuto et al, 1995). Apart from fusarium wilt, vascular wilt disease can also be induced by Verticillium dalhiae and V. albo-atrum that provoke similar wilt symptoms.…”

Role of Ascorbic acid, Glutathione and Proline Applied as Singly or in Sequence Combination in Improving Chickpea Plant through Physiological Change and Antioxidant Defense under Different Levels of Irrigation Intervals

“…Increasing plant resistance to drought stress would be the most economical approach to improving agricultural productivity and reducing agricultural use of freshwater resources [5]. To cope ROS effects, plants generate antioxidants that include both enzymatic and non-enzymatic components, phenolic compounds and several phytohormones that regulate the mechanisms to maintain optimum ROS concentration [6,7]. In addition, general metabolic adaptation, which enables plants to cope with water or osmotic stress, involves an increased synthesis of osmoprotectants, such as proline (Pro) [8].…”
