Abstract:Among the various biocontrol agents, Pseudomonas fluorescens Migula, a strain of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is being exploited commercially for plant protection to induce systemic resistance against various insect pests and diseases. The foliar application of P. fluorescens has been reported to enhance the activity of defense related enzymes viz., Peroxidase (POD), Polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and Phenylalanine Ammonia-lyase (PAL) in the plant system. The experiment was conducted to know the effec… Show more
