Investigation of Systemic Acquired Resistance Establishment in Tomato Plants by application of Marigold Extract

kumari Anukrati

Abstract


In this study an effort was made to understand the impact of marigold leaf extract on the expression and activity of defense enzymes; Peroxidase (POX) and Catalase and their ability to induce defense response in tomato plants. Effect of aqueous leaf extract of T. erecta was observed on activity of PR proteins POX and Catalase on seven week old tomato plants. Aqueous leaf extract of T. erecta was sprayed on the third nodal leaves from the base of each plant 7 week old tomato plants and activity of PR proteins POX and Catalase was studied. The extract was sprayed to 3rd nodal leaves of the host plants and the enzyme activities of the above stated proteins were assayed in the untreated leaves of the same plants. The results gave an outlook of induced changes in host plant due to introduction of a foreign component to the plant. The host plant tends to reduce its PR protein activity initially, but gradually it attains its normal expression, thereby, proving that marigold leaf extract do not impart any deleterious effect on the host plant.
