Abstract
Radiata pine is one of the most commonly planted tree species in Chile due to its fast growth and desirable wood and pulp properties. However, its productivity is hampered by several diseases. Pitch canker disease (PCC) caused by Fusarium circinatum, is considered the most damaging disease to the pine forest industry. Several control measures have been established, with biological control emerging as an environmentally friendly and effective way for F. circinatum control. Previous studies support the value of Clonostachys rosea in reducing PCC damage, with evidence suggesting a potential induced systemic resistance (ISR) triggered in radiata pines by this agent. Ten-month-old radiata pine plants were pre-treated with C. rosea on a substrate at 8 and 1 days before inoculation with F. circinatum on the stem tip, and expression levels were determined for DXS1, LOX, PAL, and PR3 genes 24 h later. Lesion length was 45% lower on plants pre-treated with C. rosea and infected with F. circinatum compared to non-pre-treated and infected plants. Additionally, LOX and PR3 were induced 23 and 62 times more, respectively, in comparison to untreated plants. Our results indicate that C. rosea causes an ISR response in pre-treated plants, significantly increasing the expression of resistance genes and reducing lesion length.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
