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