Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Pseudomonas fluorescens isolate Pfl inhibited the growth of Alternaria palandui in vitro.
- Observation Chitinase isoform pattern changed in both onion cultivars, with or without challenge-inoculation of Alternaria palandui.
- Observation PO2 peroxidase isoform was induced in both onion cultivars in response to pathogen inoculation.
- Observation Polyphenol oxidase PPO isoform was induced in Pfl-treated onion plants challenged with pathogen.
- Intervention effect Beta-1,3-glucanase activity was greatly induced in Pfl-treated onion plants challenged with pathogen, compared with controls.
- Intervention effect P. fluorescens-treated onion plants had a significant increase in defence enzyme levels compared with plants challenged with the pathogen.
