Phosphatase activity in susceptible and resistant cultivars of Brassica juncea inoculated with isolates of Macrophomina phaseolina and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. 1979

J N Rai, and S K Srivastava, and S Dhawan

Inoculations with isolates of Macrophomina phaseolina and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum resulted in a significant increase in the acid phosphatase activity of susceptible and resistant cultivars of Brassica juncea, which appeared to be related to the disease reaction of different host-pathogen combinations. After an increase on the 6th day of inoculation there was usually a fall in activity on the 12th and 18th days. Resistant cultivars showed very poor activity in comparison to their susceptible counterparts.

D001203 Ascomycota A phylum of fungi which have cross-walls or septa in the mycelium. The perfect state is characterized by the formation of a saclike cell (ascus) containing ascospores. Most pathogenic fungi with a known perfect state belong to this phylum. Ascomycetes,Cochliobolus,Sclerotinia,Ascomycete,Ascomycotas,Sclerotinias
