Abstract

An appreciable reduction in pectin and cellulose content was observed in P. aphanidermatum infected tomato hypocotyls: Only in the infected tissues ando- PG, PGTE and macerating enzymes were detected while PME and Cx enzymes were found both in healthy and infected tissues. The pathogen produced endo PG, PGTE, Cx and macerating enzymes in vitro
