Abstract
The effect of pre-sowing treatment of soft wheat seeds of the Darya (K-64432) and Leningradskaya 6 (K-64902) varieties using biologically active chitosan with or without the crosslinking agent glyoxal has been evaluated. Two methods of glyoxal administration have been considered: after the treatment with chitosan and simultaneously with chitosan. The phytometric characteristics of the crops, as well as the phytopathological and other indicators of disease development, have been analyzed. Regardless of the processing method, wheat productivity has been shown to increase significantly (by 188%), with the optimal chitosan solution concentrations being 5% for the Darya variety and 6–7% for the Leningradskaya 6 variety. Sequential treatment with chitosan and glyoxal has been found to be the most effective method, particularly reducing the incidence of powdery mildew in the Leningradskaya 6 variety (BE = 95.7%).
期刊介绍:
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes original articles on biochemistry and microbiology that have or may have practical applications. The studies include: enzymes and mechanisms of enzymatic reactions, biosynthesis of low and high molecular physiologically active compounds; the studies of their structure and properties; biogenesis and pathways of their regulation; metabolism of producers of biologically active compounds, biocatalysis in organic synthesis, applied genetics of microorganisms, applied enzymology; protein and metabolic engineering, biochemical bases of phytoimmunity, applied aspects of biochemical and immunochemical analysis; biodegradation of xenobiotics; biosensors; biomedical research (without clinical studies). Along with experimental works, the journal publishes descriptions of novel research techniques and reviews on selected topics.
