Blast, caused by the fungus Pyricularia oryzae, is a major disease of wheat crop in Brazilian Cerrado and represents potential threat to world production. However, information about wheat-P. oryzae interaction still limited. In this work, activities enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), ascorbate (APX), glutathione reductase (GR), (GPX) concentrations (O₂(-)), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), malondialdehyde (MDA) as well electrolyte...
Coffea arabica cultivars Catuaí 44 and IAPAR 59, susceptible resistant, respectively, to the root knot nematode Meloidogyne exigua , were grown in pots containing Si‐deficient soil amended with either calcium silicate (+Si) or carbonate (−Si). There was an increase of 152 100%, Si content tissue cvs 59 +Si compared −Si treatment, but no significant difference between treatments for content. Plants, assessed 150 days after inoculation (d.a.i.) showed that number galls (NG) eggs (NE)...
This study investigated whether the increase in wheat resistance to blast, caused by P yricularia oryzae , potentiated silicon ( S i) is linked changes activity of antioxidative enzymes. Wheat plants (cv. BR 18) were grown hydroponic culture with either 0 (– or 2 m (+ i and half each group inoculated . Blast severity + was 70% lower compared − at 96 h after inoculation (hai).

This study aimed to assess the ability of silicon (Si) potentiate defense enzyme activities in rice leaf sheaths and thus reduce sheath blight, caused by Rhizoctonia solani, development. Rice plants BR-Irga 409 Labelle cultivars were grown a hydroponic solution containing 0 (-Si) or 2 mM (+Si) Si inoculated with R. solani. Silicon concentration was significantly higher +Si than -Si 727% for 714% Labelle. The area under relative lesion expansion progress curve lower plants, 34.2% 30.59%...
This study aimed to determine the effect of jasmonic acid (JA), Acibenzolar-S-Methyl (ASM) and calcium silicate (a source soluble silicon, Si), on potentiation soybean resistance Asian rust (ASR). The ASR severity was significantly reduced plants sprayed with ASM or supplied Si in comparison JA deionized water. For chitinases (CHI), significant differences activity between non-inoculated inoculated water occurred at 72 hours after inoculation (hai), 24 hai when 141 Si. β-1,3-glucanases...
This study investigated the effects of silicon (Si) on resistance common bean plants to anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. The were grown in a nutrient solution containing 0 (control) or 2 mM Si (+Si) and both photosynthesis antioxidative metabolism levels evaluated. concentrations leaf tissues +Si increased 33% comparison those control plants. Anthracnose severity was reduced 34% net carbon assimilation rate, stomatal conductance water vapor transpiration rate values...
Abstract This study investigated the effect of silicon (Si) on resistance bean plants (cv. ‘Peróla’) to anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum , grown in a nutrient solution containing 0 (−Si) or 2 mmol Si L −1 (+Si). The concentration leaf tissue and incubation period increased 55.2% 14.3%, respectively, +Si relation −Si plants. area under anthracnose progress curve severity estimated software QUANT significantly decreased 32.9% 27%, for did not affect total soluble phenolics....
Abstract The use of silicon (Si) in agriculture has attracted a great deal interest from researchers because the numerous benefits this element to plants, especially when they are submitted abiotic and/or biotic types stress. host's increased resistance diseases, promoted by Si, is mainly associated with deposition tissues and potentiation defence mechanisms. However, mechanisms involved Si‐mediated host need be further investigated. Thus, study aimed microscopically biochemically elucidate...
In Brazil, the expansion of agricultural activity and associated indiscriminate use herbicides such as glyphosate is directly related to loss biodiversity in Cerrado. The identification plant species bioindicators herbicide action, especially native area, can help monitoring impacts xenobiotics remaining Thus, this study was designed evaluate possible Cerrado Pouteria torta a bioindicator action via changes physiological performance. At 16 months after sowing, effect evaluated by applying...
Frogeye leaf spot, caused by Cercospora sojina, is one of the most important diseases soybean worldwide. Silicon (Si) known to increase resistance several plant species pathogens. The cultivars Bossier and Conquista, which are susceptible resistant, respectively, frogeye supplied nonsupplied with Si were examined for activities defense enzymes concentrations total soluble phenolics (TSP) lignin-thioglycolic acid (LTGA) derivatives at 8, 14, 16 days after inoculation (dai) C. sojina....
Abstract Frogeye leaf spot ( FLS ), caused by the fungus Cercospora sojina , is one of most important soybean diseases and can cause great yield losses.
