Popis: | The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of acibenzolar-S-methyl (ASM) and harpin protein, applied pre-harvest, in the induction of resistance in strawberry to pathogens and mites. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, in a randomized block design with three replications. Treatments with harpin protein and ASM were established through biweekly applications of these elicitors in plants of strawberry, from 60 to 120 days after transplanting of seedlings. The application of ASM and harpin protein induced resistance in the strawberry plants, resulting in an increase in phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity and total phenol production, while reducing leaf blight and grey mould. The application of harpin protein also caused a reduction in mite damage, while increasing photosynthetic rate and the production of marketable fruits. The elicitors ASM and harpin, applied pre-harvest, can be used as part of the integrated pest management of diseases and pests of strawberry. |
