Influence of Septoria glycines Hemmi on the enzymes’ activity of hydrolytic Glycines max (L.) Merr seed complex

Abstract

The Septoria leaf spot (Septoria glycines Hemmi), is a harmful pathogen of soybean. To create a resistant variety to this pathogen, a detailed study of physiological processes at the biochemical level is necessary. Enzymes play a leading role in adapting to stressors. It was shown that the specific activity of esterases and RNases of soybean seeds infected with septoria decreased, relative to the control. Multiple forms of enzymes with different electrophoretic mobility were identified, which indicates a decrease in metabolism under the influence of fungal disease. At the same time, the specific activity of amylases and acid phosphatases of soybean seeds was not strongly affected by S. glycine, as evidenced by the relatively stable multiple forms of enzymes.
