Risposte di resistenza a batteri fitopatogeni di importanti specie coltivate indotte da molecole segnale di diversa natura

description: A modern management of crop protection should be based on integrated control programmes, including the use of environmentally safe products. Antagonistic/beneficial bacteria and resistance inducers may have a great potential in the prophylaxis of diseases caused by common and quarantine pathogens. This work was carried out to confirm the ability of the known strain IPV-BO G19 (Pseudomonas fluorescens) against fire blight (Erwinia amylovora), as well as to evaluate their efficacy against southern bacterial wilt of tomato (Ralstonia solanacearum) and grapevine crown gall (Agrobacterium vitis). A virulent strain of R. solanacearum race 3 was inhibited by the antagonist on plate. When the pathogen was inoculated 48 h after their application to the root apparatus of tomato plants grown in a climatic chamber, bacterial wilt progression rate was clearly reduced. Moreover the defence response evoked by IPV-BO G19 was studied in tomato plants by monitoring the transcription of genes codifying for three PRs as PR-1a, PR-4, PR-5 and for an intracellular chitinase using multiplex RT-PCR and Real Time RT-PCR. In two field trials during 2005 and 2006, the strain IPV-BO G19 was compared with biofungicides and some abiotic elicitors to protect actively growing shoots of pear scions against fire blight. In both trials, IPV-BO G19 plus Na-alginate gave a high level of protection, three weeks after wound inoculation with E. amylovora. In pear leaf tissues treated with the antagonistic strain IPV-BO G19, catalase, superoxyde dismutase and peroxidise activity was evaluated as markers of induced resistance. The IPV-BO G19 strain was compared with other bioagents and resistance inducers to prevent grapevine crown gall under glasshouse and vineyard conditions.
