Polyphenols and inhibitors of indoIyl-3-acetic acid oxidase in carrot roots infested with northern root-knot nematode

Krystyna M. Janas

Abstract


It is suggested that IAA-oxidase inhibitors accumulate in plants infested by the nematodes. This leads to local accumulation of active auxins and causes proliferation of tissues near the place of nematode infection. T e carrot cv. Slendero seems to be less sensitive to nematode as the inhibitors of IAA-oxidase do not accumulate at early stages of infection.
