Methyl jasmonate vapour treatment suppresses specking caused by Botrytis cinerea on cut Freesia hybrida L. flowers
چکیده انگلیسی
Treatment of cut freesia var. Cote d'Azur flowers with methyl jasmonate (MeJA, 0.1 μl MeJA l−1) vapour suppressed petal specking caused by Botrytis cinerea infection. MeJA efficacy was concentration and incubation temperature dependent. Disease severity, lesion numbers and lesion diameters decreased with increasing MeJA concentration from 0.025 to 0.1 μl MeJA l−1. However, there were no significant (P > 0.05) differences among MeJA concentrations examined. MeJA was more effective in reducing B. cinerea flower specking at 20 °C than at 12 °C. MeJA treatment was ineffective at 5 °C. At 20 °C, MeJA treatment at 0.1 μl MeJA l−1 reduced disease severity, lesion numbers and lesion diameters by 58, 50 and 48%, respectively, as compared to untreated controls. In a repeat experiment, disease severity, lesion numbers and lesion diameters on MeJA vapour treated flowers after 12 h of incubation were reduced by 68, 56 and 50%, respectively. MeJA did not exert direct antifungal activity in-vitro, suggesting that treatment in-vivo reduced B. cinerea-induced flower specking by induction of host defence responses. MeJA at 0.1 μl MeJA l−1 significantly (P < 0.05) increased vase life of cut freesia flowers and delayed senescence judged by lower wilt scores and higher fresh weights as compared to untreated controls.
