Influence of temperature and fungal pathogens on the activity of peroxidases in common wheat

Abstract

Peroxidase – one of the proteins associated with pathogenesis – has been found to react specifically in wheat genotype x temperature x F. oxysporum / D. sorokiniana interactions, both at the level of integral activity and of particular isoforms. Relevant isoforms have been identified, the activity of which has been significantly increased in the action of pathogens, which indicates their important role in the defensive reactions of wheat plants against the causative agents of root rot.
