This study investigated the induced defence responses and protective effects on susceptible tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) against Xanthomonas vesicatoria (Doidge) by a heat-treated aqueous extract (VLA) from dry necrotic tissue of ‘Lobeira’ (Solanum lycocarpum St. Hil.) branches infected with the fungus Crinipellis perniciosa (Stahel) compared with acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM), a commercial inducer of resistance. Plantlets were sprayed with VLA and ASM and challenged 4 days later with a virulent strain of X. vesicatoria, under greenhouse conditions. The disease severity, fresh weight of shoots, the activities of phenol peroxidase (POX), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), chitinase (CHI), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), lignin deposition, and soluble phenolic contents were evaluated in the leaf tissues. Reduction of the bacterial spot severity was observed in plantlets treated with VLA which conferred 63% of the ASM protection. This protective effect and lesion reduction promoted by VLA were probably associated particularly with POX and PAL activities, lignin deposition on leaf tissues and, to a less extent, CHI activity.
