ABSTRACT

The chrysanthemum black spot caused by Alternaria alternata significantly reduced the quality and yield of chrysanthemum. The crude toxin secreted by A. alternata in the metabolic process have elopathic effects on plants, which is the main pathogenic factor for the occurrence of chrysanthemum black spot. The pathogenic fungi A. alternate was isolated from chrysanthemum black spot leaves, The effects of crude toxin on plant height, stem diameter, root length, resistant material content, membrane relative permeability, polyphenol oxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) in different treatments of chrysanthemum 'Jinba' seedlings were investigated. The results showed that the crude toxin of A. alternata had an inhibition effect on plant height, stem diameter and root length. The toxin concentration was positively correlated with the inhibitory effect. 14 days after crude toxin treatment, plant height, stem diameter and root length were significantly inhibited, with an reduction of 28.9%, 21.4% and 23.3%, respectively. The cell membrane permeability of leaf increased with the toxin concentration. Under the same toxin concentration, the cell membrane permeability first increased and then decreased with the treatment duration. The contents of soluble protein, malondialdehyde (MDA) and proline in leaves were significantly increased after treatment with the toxin solution. The increases of PAL, POD and PPO were the most significant in 10 times A. alternatacrude toxin treatment. The pathogenicity of A. alternate crude toxin to the chrysanthemum 'Jinba' seedlings was mainly through inhibi-ting the normal growth of roots and stems, destructing the root cell membrane permeability and increasing the contents of MDA, normal soluble sugar and proline, and promoting the activities of PAL, POD, PPO in leaf tissues.
