Induced resistance and control of charcoal rot in <i>Cicer arietinum</i> (chickpea) by <i>Pseudomonas fluorescens</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pseudomonas fluorescens isolate 4-92 induced systemic resistance against charcoal rot disease in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) caused by Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goidanich. Time-course accumulation of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins (chitinases and glucanases) in chickpea plants inoculated with P. fluorescens was significantly (P = 0.05) higher than in control plants. The level of chitinases and glucanases increased by 6.6- to 7-fold up to 4 days postinoculation; thereafter, little decrease in the activity of PR proteins was observed. Root-colonizing populations of P. fluorescens were at a maximum 2 days after transplantation at different inoculum concentrations, and decreased over time. Inoculation of root tips of chickpea by P. fluorescens, 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid, and o-acetylsalicylic acid induced systemic resistance against charcoal rot. Disease was 33 to 55.5% higher in control plants than in plants inoculated with chemical inducers or P. fluorescens. Single treatment of plants with P. fluorescens increased disease resistance by 33%, whereas combined application of P. fluorescens with either of the chemical inducers was most effective in inducing the resistance by 2- to 2.25-fold. The time-course study shows that an interval of at least 2 days was required between induction treatment and challenge inoculation. Biocontrol efficacy of P. fluorescens against charcoal rot disease in chickpea was demonstrated under greenhouse conditions.Key words: biological control, induced resistance, Macrophomina phaseolina, Pseudomonas fluorescens.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
