Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect SA, JA, BTH and BABA significantly increased total soluble protein in sprayed and unsprayed muskmelon leaves.
- Observation Eleven muskmelon varieties were moderately resistant to downy mildew.
- Intervention effect SA treatment gave the highest mean maximum protein of 11.4 mg/g FW in Punjab Sunehri, MC 2012-9 and MM105-Kajri.
- Observation Hemed had a maximum protein of 11.2 mg/g FW.
- Observation MM4305 had a maximum protein of 11.1 mg/g FW.
- Intervention effect SA treatment of the Rough skin variety gave the maximum disease control of 93.48%.
- Observation MM3843 had disease control of 92.07%.
- Observation MM4305 had disease control of 91.27%.
- Intervention effect BTH treatment of Kajri plants gave the minimum disease control.
- Association The moderately resistant variety responded more strongly to the elicitors.
- Association The susceptible variety showed decreased disease severity after elicitor treatment.
- Mechanism Elicitor application followed by inoculation is proposed to help elicit defence related proteins that protect muskmelon.
