RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the innate defense mechanisms and induced by the application of ulvan by infection of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in apple. The resistance seedlings were treated with distillated water (control) 6 days before inoculation (DBI), while susceptible was sprayed with ulvan (10 mg/mL). Seedlings were inoculated with C. gloeosporioides and severity Glomerella Leaf Spot (GLS) was assessed daily from 4 to 10 days post-inoculation (DPI), based on visual estimation of the percentage of necrotic tissue. At 10 DPI all the leaves were detached and scanned to determine leaf area necrosis using Software Quant. Conidial germination and appressoria formation of C. gloeosporioides was evaluated at 24, 48 and 72 hours after inoculation (HAI) in 2nd and 3rd expanded leaf of seedlings. For this, foliar discs (9mm) were collected, leached and maintained in lactoglicerol until microscopical examination. The peroxidases and glucanases activity was determined in tissue remaining of the 2nd and 3rd expanded leaf of seedlings apple at 24, 48 and 72 HAI. Seedlings with innate resistance never showed symptoms of GLS. Ulvan sprayed at 6 DBI significantly reduced the severity of the GLS in seedlings. Conidial germination of C. gloeosporioides was not changed by either innate resistance or induced by ulvan. The development of structures of infection in resistance seedlings was similar to controls, however the ulvan spraying inhibited appressorium formation and germ tube elongation of fungus. Both innate resistance and induced by ulvan increased the POX activity of apple seedlings, but the activity of GLU was not changed. In sum, the innate resistance of apple against GLS seems to be related to the rapid recognition of C. gloeosporioides with increased activity of POX at 24 HAI. Disease reduction by ulvan was associated with a lesser appressorium formation and germ tube elongation of C. gloeosporioides, as well as enhanced POX activity in seedlings at 72 HAI.
