“…Our investigations strongly suggest that peroxidase activity is a biochemical marker, which may or may not be part of the resistance mechanism, and can be used to predict resistance to disease. In our work with 12 tomato and 4 melon cultivars/breeding lines, a high correlation was found between peroxidase activity in non-infected tomato or melon and resistance to Vertidllium dahliae or Sphaerotheca fuliginea respectively FERREIRA 1985, REUVENI andBOTHMA 1985). In the case of melon, enhanced peroxidase activity was manifested in several isozymes (REUVENI and BOTHMA 1985).…”

Peroxidase activity in leaves of maize (Zea mays L.) differing in susceptibility to Exserohilum turcicum has been investigated in relation to their resistance to Northern Leaf Blight (NLB) caused by the fungal pathogen E. turcicum. In non‐inoculated plants, high peroxidase activity was detected in leaves of the resistant isolines B37HtN and B73HtN as compared with the susceptible isolines B37 and B73 and the sweet corn variety Jubilee. After inoculation with E. turcicum, peroxidase activity increased in both susceptible and resistant isolines B73 and B73HtN. However, marked enhancement of peroxidase activity was detected 6 days after inoculation and became remarkable in isoline B73HtN, although symptomes started to show up in both susceptible and resistant plants only 10 days after inoculation. Using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separations, different banding pattern of isoperoxidases was found in the susceptible plants as compared with the resistant ones. In non‐inoculated plants, three differential bands which appeared in the resistant isoline B37HtN, were absent in the susceptible Jubilee plants, and were as traces in the isoline B37. These bands first appeared in Jubilee and as clear bands in B37, only after inoculation with E. turcicum. The association of these isoperoxidases and resistance of maize to E. turcicum is discussed.

“…3) and visual Fe chiorosis rating (Table 2). Infection by vascular wilt pathogens on the other hand, is correlated with elevation of peroxidase activity (Reuveni and Ferreira, 1985). In contrast, chlorophyll content of Fe deficient in- fected Pixie was considerably greater than in any other Fe limited treatment, and peroxidase activity was significantly higher than in all other treatments.…”

“…Root samples (two samples/plant) of Pixie and Pixie II were assayed for peroxidase activity using a technique modified from Reuveni and Ferreira (1985). Immediately following excision, 0.3 g root samples were placed in dry ice until the frozen tissues could be homogenized in a chilled mortar and pestle.…”

Interactions between iron nutrition and Verticillium wilt resistance in tomato

The relationship between Fe nutritional status and Verticillium wilt disease in tomatoes possessing single gene resistance to Race 1 of Verticillium dahliae was investigated using hydroponic culture media. Iron limiting conditions increased the sensitivity of resistant tomatoes to the pathogen as expressed by wilting and chlorosis. Distance of fungal vascular invasion was approximately the same in both Fe replete and Fe limited treatments. Comparison of near-isolines revealed that the magnitude of disease expressed in Fe deficient Pixie II (resistant) was considerably less than that expressed by the susceptible Pixie variety. Infection of tomato did not enhance the severity of low-Fe stress as quantified by root peroxidase activity and chlorophyll content of young leaves.

“…Resistance to M. incognita in chickpea is unknown, but there is some evidence that reduced susceptibility to RKN in some genotypes is associated with greater increases in root peroxidase activity in response to nematode infection (Siddiqui and Husain 1992). These peroxidases are associated with the initiation of the hypersensitive response, systemic defense mechanisms and lignification of cell walls, mechanisms that are commonly employed by plants in response to infection from a range of pathogens and parasites (Reuveni and Ferreira 1985;Bronner et al 1991;Do et al 2003;Montes et al 2004;Choi et al 2007;Oliveira et al 2012).…”

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most economically important food legume in the world. Its yield potential is often limited by various biotic stresses, including fungal and viral diseases, insects, nematodes and parasitic weeds. Incorporating genetic resistance into cultivars is the most effective and economical way of controlling biotic stresses and this is a major objective in many breeding programs. Extensive searches for resistances have been conducted by screening commercial varieties, landraces and closely related species. Resistances to disease such as Ascochyta blight and Fusarium wilt have been identified and molecular tools are being used to increase the efficiency of gene transfer from wild species into chickpea elite genotypes. Quantitative trait loci for resistance genes have been located on linkage maps and molecular markers associated with these loci can potentially be used for efficient pyramiding of the traits. Significant chickpea genomic resources have been developed in order to investigate resistance genes. Such resources include an integrated genetic map, expressed sequence tag libraries, bacterial artificial chromosome libraries, microarrays and draft genome sequences. Although these resources have yet to be used to improve chickpea cultivars in the field, this is likely to change in the near future. These genomic resources, as well as high-resolution phenotyping tools and cutting-edge technologies such as next-generation sequencing, promise to increase efficiency as work to identify valuable candidate genes continues.
