Cellulysin induces downy mildew disease resistance in pearl millet driven through defense response

The responses to cellulysin as an immune inducer in pearl millet that confers downy mildew resistance mediated through lipoxygenase (LOX), a jasmonate-dependent enzyme involved in defence signalling, are discussed in this paper. The susceptible pearl millet cultivar 7042S was treated with cellulysin...

Zusammenfassung:The responses to cellulysin as an immune inducer in pearl millet that confers downy mildew resistance mediated through lipoxygenase (LOX), a jasmonate-dependent enzyme involved in defence signalling, are discussed in this paper. The susceptible pearl millet cultivar 7042S was treated with cellulysin at 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50 μg/ml concentrations. All tested concentrations showed enhanced seed germination and seedling vigour when compared with the untreated control. Maximum seed germination of 92 % and seedling vigour was obtained following 20 μg/ml cellulysin treatment. Significant (P
